Myrtue’s Public Health COVID-19 Vaccine Availability

Myrtue Medical Center’s Department of Public Health is providing COVID-19 vaccine at the Community Health building on Friday’s in November starting Friday, November 12 and Wednesdays in December. Please review eligibility for primary series and boost doses for all three COVID-19 vaccines below:

Primary Series

• Anyone 12 years of age and older (Pfizer)
• Anyone 18 years of age and older (Moderna & Janssen)

COVID-19 Boost Vaccine

Janssen: Anyone 18 years of age and older that is 2 months post first vaccine.

Pfizer and Moderna: Anyone 18 years of age and older that is 6 months post-second vaccine dose AND meets one of the following criteria:

• Age: 65 years or older
• Health: You have underlying health conditions that increase the risk of severe COVID-19 disease.
