Governor Brown announced that everyone who is 16 and over will be eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine on April 19th . Given this, the Grant County Health Department is encouraging all individuals that desire to receive the vaccine to contact us to schedule an appointment. Please send an email to vaccine@ccsemail.org. This is our preferred route to sign people up on the vaccine list. When you send an email, simply let us know that you are interested in receiving the vaccine. Please provide the following information:
Name
Date of birth
Phone number
Mailing address
Which vaccine you desire: Moderna or Johnson and Johnson
You will receive a confirmation email back within 48 hours.
If indicating interest through email is not possible, you can call the GCHD at 541-575-0429, or Strawberry Wilderness Clinic at 541-575-0404 and asked to be placed on the COVID-19 vaccine list.
The Pfizer vaccine is approved for individuals 16 and over. The Moderna and Johnson and Johnson vaccines are approved for individuals 18 and over. At this time, Grant County does not have any Pfizer vaccine available. We have requested the Pfizer vaccine from the state.
If you are under 18 and desire the vaccine, we will put you on a wait list and contact you when we have Pfizer vaccine available.
