  11. Results of Theme Breakout Sessions – Theme I • Avoid tiered or staggered vaccination recommendations • If tiered recommendations necessary, open vaccination to all as soon as possible • Vaccination recommendations should be clear, consistent, and clearly communicated to partners and the public • Live attenuated vaccine recommendations should be clearly distinguished from those for inactivated vaccine
