Fairgrounds Vaccination Update
If you were scheduled to get your first or second dose of COVID-19 vaccine at the fairgrounds on Tuesday (including those rescheduled due to snow) but were unable to get vaccinated, you can go the site anytime during operating hours today (9 am to 5 pm) to get vaccinated. Your vaccine will be waiting for you.
If you received your first dose at the fairgrounds, you will get a second dose at the fairgrounds. The day after receiving your first dose, you should receive a follow-up message (email or text) with a link to schedule your second dose.
If you experience difficulties with the scheduling system and are unable to schedule an appointment for a second dose, you will still get your second dose. Just bring your original confirmation email from Safeway/Albertsons or your vaccine record card and go to the fairgrounds on the date you are due for your second dose, and you will get vaccinated.
It’s encouraging to see the COVID-19 activity rate in Clark County decreasing! 📉 This is a testament to everyone’s hard work in following safety guidelines. 😷 It’s crucial to keep it up by wearing face coverings, practicing physical distancing, and avoiding gatherings. 🙌 I wonder how the vaccination efforts are going in the county and if they’re contributing to the decline in cases. 💉
