Protect Yourself and Your Loved Ones from COVID-19
The Asian American and Pacific Islander community has the highest COVID-19 vaccination rate in the country because we know how important it is to take care of our health. Get the updated COVID-19 vaccine to protect yourself and those around you this winter.
COVID-19 continues to pose a significant public health threat, remaining a leading cause of respiratory illness-related hospitalizations.
Who Should Get Vaccinated?
* The CDC recommends that everyone ages 6 months and older receive the updated 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine.
* If you are 65 years or older, or if you are moderately or severely immunocompromised, you should receive a second dose six months after your first.
Why Should I Get Vaccinated?
* Vaccination helps protect against severe illness, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19.
* Over 95% of adults hospitalized in the last year due to COVID-19 had no record of receiving the latest vaccine.
* Studies show that vaccination also reduces the risk of developing long-term symptoms, known as Long COVID, by 70%.
Book an Appointment
* Getting the updated COVID-19 vaccine is the safest, most reliable way to build protection against infections and helps ensure that our loved ones and communities can gather safely.
