Next Stage of COVID Vaccinations to Start Soon

Starting next week, Iron County residents over 65 will be able to make appointments to receive their COVID 19 vaccinations. The state health department announced the expanded roll out of the immunization program for the entire state. Those over 65 can obtain the vaccine through their health care provider, pharmacy, or local or tribal public health agency. Vaccinating entities with any vaccine on hand can begin to vaccinate this population prior to January 25 if they have concluded the previously eligible populations. Those being vaccinated directly through their health care provider should be contacted to schedule an appointment by their health care provider.
