Tribal Health is now offering COVID vaccinations to all people (tribal and non-tribal) ages 5+ years.
COVID booster shots are also available for anyone over 16+ years old (6 months after the second dose for Pfizer or Moderna; and 2 months after first dose of Johnson & Johnson).
Flu vaccinations are also available for all Tribal Health eligible patients at both Tribal Health pharmacies.
Beginning January 1, 2022, we will only offer COVID vaccinations to those eligible for Tribal Health services.
Minors must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian, and will need a signed consent form from a parent or legal guardian to receive COVID-19 vaccinations.

FDA COVID-19 Vaccine Information
The full benefits of immunity are not reached until two weeks after the second dose of the COVID vaccine, so as cases of COVID remain high, Tribal Health reminds everyone that it is critical now to physically distance, wear a mask and wash your hands. Also, minimize gatherings, and delay travel if possible.
