Walla Walla County Vaccination Clinic scheduled Feb. 11 and 13

 

February 11, 2021



WALLA WALLA­—Walla Walla County Department of Community Health (DCH) and county health partners will be holding a second-dose vaccination clinic on February 13 at the County Fairgrounds for those who received their first dose on Saturday, January 23. Those who received their vaccine that day should arrive at the fairgrounds at the same time as their original appointment with the CDC vaccination card that they received at that appointment. That card is important for verifying the date of their first vaccine.

Walla Walla DCH was notified last week that the county will receive approximately 1,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses from the state on Monday, February 8. Those doses will allow DCH and county health partners to operate their mass vaccination clinic on Thursday, February 11 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Eligible county residents were able to start scheduling appointments on Monday, February 8 at 10 a.m. After completing the Phase Finder Tool to verify eligibility, those who are interested in receiving a vaccine, should complete the following steps:

• Step 1: Go to doh.wa.gov and click the “Vaccine Locations,” button.

• Step 2: Scroll or search for “Walla Walla County” in the list of counties.

• Step 3: Click “Walla Walla County.”

• Step 4: Click the “Walla Walla County Fairgrounds,” link.

• Step 5: Click “Click Here to Schedule Appointment.”

• Step 6: Select an available appointment time.

• Step 7: Click “Submit and Sign Up.”

• Step 8: Enter your name, email and other required information.

• Step 9: Click “Sign Up Now.”

• Step 10: Check your email inbox. You will receive a confirmation if all steps have been completed successfully.

It is important to note that no walk-in appointments will be accepted. If you are unable to schedule an appointment, please do not show up at the clinic to get your vaccination. Residents without Internet or computer access and without a trusted contact in the area to assist them, can call the DCH helpline (509) 524-2647 and leave their name, date of birth, phone number, and a message stating that they do not have access to internet or a computer. From there, eligible individuals will be referred to community partners to be scheduled for a vaccine appointment at an upcoming clinic.

We encourage all residents to visit the county’s COVID-19 website for information on upcoming vaccination clinics and to use the DOH Phase Finder to verify eligibility. Residents may also text ‘COVIDWW’ to 888777 to receive up-to-date information from DCH via text messaging.
