In the State of Utah, COVID-19 vaccines have now been made available to individuals aged 65 and over! We are excited to begin vaccinating community members in our district, as it shows us a glimpse into a more positive future.

Our vaccine scheduler is available at this time to those individuals aged 65 and over, and age verification will be required at the time of vaccination. We ask that if you are under 65 years of age, please do not schedule an appointment at this time, as it will take a time slot from someone who is eligible, and we will not be able to administer the vaccine to you.
​

Online scheduled clinic times are only available to those 65 and older.

If you have had COVID-19, we recommend you wait 90 days before receiving your vaccine.
