boost immunity against regular COVID-19 and include extra protection against the Omicron variants
that are causing most recent infections.
• Everyone ages 5 and older is eligible to receive the updated bivalent booster if it has been
more than two months since their most recent COVID-19 vaccine or booster dose. For some
adults, this may be their fifth COVID-19 shot.
• Regular COVID-19 vaccines will be available for ages 6 months and older according to CDC
guidelines.
• This winter’s seasonal flu vaccines will also be available for ages 6 months and older and can
be given on the same day as COVID-19 vaccines.
The CDC now recommends that everyone 6 months and older get vaccinated against COVID-19. Help
get all the protection you can for your family by making sure everyone is up to date with their COVID-
19 shots, boosters, and flu shots.
Northern Navajo Medical Center provides primary COVID-19 vaccines and booster shots on Monday
through Friday, 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM at the Drive-Up Vaccine Trailer.
