COVID-19 Vaccine Information
We want to make sure that you have the information you need to answer your questions about the new COVID-19 vaccine. Here are some frequently asked questions:
- Will it work? There are four vaccines available now. They are highly effective at preventing serious illness and hospital admissions from COVID-19.
- How do I get a vaccine? Once you pre-register, you will receive updates when you are able to schedule an appointment to get a vaccine.
- What does it cost? There is no cost for anyone to receive a vaccine.
- What should I expect when I get a vaccine? Depending on the type of vaccine you get, you will need one or two doses to ensure you are protected from COVID-19. You do not need to bring a government-issued ID and cannot be turned away for not having ID. It is important to bring some form of ID, if possible, to make sure the right person receives the vaccine.
A free flu vaccine can help with your health
Flu season runs from October through May. You and your loved ones can stay protected by going for a flu vaccine. It is recommended for those ages 6 months and older by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Certain pharmacies offer flu vaccines by walk-in or appointment.
