After reading up on the COVID-19 vaccine, it is time to look for vaccination providers near you. Luckily, there are many easy ways in which one can do so.

• Visit Vaccines.gov. This website will help you find vaccination providers. It provides locations that fit the criteria you set up, like the type of vaccine and the maximum mile radius. For example, if you were looking to only get the Pfizer vaccine within a 25-mile radius, it will look for a location that matches your criteria.

• Text your ZIP code to 438829 or call 1-800-232-0233 to find vaccine locations near you in the United States.

• Check your local pharmacy’s website to see if vaccination appointments are available. Check out your local Walgreens to see if there is availability!

Most vaccination providers schedule vaccination appointments online. To schedule your COVID-19 vaccination appointment, visit vaccine providers' online scheduling services.

Yay! You got your COVID-19 vaccine. What now?

It is important to note that after receiving your dose(s) of the COVID-19 vaccine, one is considered to be fully vaccinated if they meet one of the following criteria:

• 2 weeks after their second dose in a 2-dose series, such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines.

• 2 weeks after a single-dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine.

Fully vaccinated? Now you can resume activities without wearing a mask or physically distancing, except where required by federal, state, local, tribal, or territorial laws, rules, and regulations, including local business and workplace guidance.

Though of course, it is still important to remain informed and attentive to the COVID-19 situation in and around your area.
