Staying up to date with your COVID-19 vaccines helps you have the best protection against severe illness, hospitalization, and death. COVID-19 vaccines are safe, effective, and widely available.

To find COVID-19 vaccine locations near you: Search Vaccines.gov, text your ZIP code to 438829, or call 1-800-232-0233.

When are you up to date with your COVID-19 vaccines?

The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) recommends that everyone 5 years and older should get 1 updated COVID-19 vaccine, at least two months after getting the last dose of any COVID-19 vaccine. For young children, multiple doses continue to be recommended and will vary by age, vaccine, and which vaccines were previously received. People who are moderately or severely immunocompromised may get additional doses of updated COVID-19 vaccines. Talk to your health care provider about additional updated doses.
