Second Covid-19 Vaccine Dose Eligibility

It is very exciting to share the news that many of you with high-risk health conditions, will be eligible to receive your second dose at an earlier time. Check with your local health department about the opportunity to have your second dose sooner than you may have already been scheduled. Keep in mind, that any other vaccines that you wish to update cannot be given within two weeks before a Covid shot or one month after.

Let’s all work together to ensure that not only ourselves but also those with who we are in close contact are vaccinated. Together we can have a huge impact on reducing the burden of this virus.

Here is the current plan (click on the image to enlarge):
