COVID-19 Vaccination
Based on guidance from the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), all Ohioans aged five and older are now eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized use of the following vaccines in each age group:
- 5-11 years of age: Pfizer vaccine
- 12-17 years of age: Pfizer vaccine
- 18 years of age and older: Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines
To find a vaccine provider and schedule your vaccination appointment, visit the Ohio Department of Health’s Vaccine Management Solutions tool.
COVID-19 Vaccine Booster Shot
The FDA and CDC have authorized a single booster dose for the three COVID-19 vaccines available in the U.S. (Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson) to strengthen protection against serious outcomes from COVID-19 and/or against COVID-19 infection.
At this time, Southwest General will not be offering vaccine clinics for the COVID-19 vaccine booster shot. There are now many opportunities to be vaccinated in the community, including at pharmacies, local health departments, physician offices and more. We recommend that you use the Ohio Department of Health’s Vaccine Management Solutions tool (gettheshot.coronavirus.ohio.gov) to find a vaccine provider near you to schedule your booster shot appointment.
