Vaccination Information
Covid-19 vaccinations play a critical role in not only protecting ourselves but also our families and the community at large. We currently offer the Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines to anyone 18 years of age or older and especially those with pre-existing conditions. The Moderna vaccine is a 2 dose series separated by 28 days and the Johnson & Johnson only requires one dose. Scheduling takes place via our Healow application.
