Yes it is available. My kids have received it. We also give it to our geriatric patients at work.

I am sure there is a CDC recommendation on it(don't know it off hand) ... but I think the recommendation is for all high risk groups (elderly, immunocompromised, under 2, etc) to have it.

edit to add....
