COVID-19 vaccination changes

There are changes to the recommendations for COVID-19 vaccinations.  We will begin to administer vaccines based on these recommended changes on Wednesday, May 3, and Thursday, May 4.

We are your vaccine experts in the community and can help determine your eligibility and help keep you up-to-date on vaccinations.

Walk-ins are welcome but appointments are preferred.  Call for an appointment at 660-395-4711.

COVID-19 vaccinations are recommended for ages 6 months and up to help reduce severe illness due to COVID-19.

New COVID-19 vaccination changes are:

  1. Ages 6 and up who have not received any COVID-19 vaccination can receive one dose of the bivalent Moderna or Pfizer vaccine
  2. Adults 65 and older or anyone who is moderately or severely immunocompromised may receive a second bivalent dose 4 months after their first bivalent vaccine.
  3. Individuals age 6 and up who have already had a bivalent COVID-19 vaccine are up-to-date and do not need another one at this time
  4. Any children under age 6 will still continue to receive a multi-dose series and are eligible for a bivalent dose if never received.
