COVID-19 Vaccines Now Available for Ages 12 and Older

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) approved Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines for patients age 12 and older this week. Following their approval, the New Mexico Department of Health (NMDOH) Advisory Team has given New Mexico the green light on proceeding with vaccines on this younger demographic.

You are able to register to get your vaccine through the NMDOH, BUT…

Did you know you can also give us a call at Union County General Hospital to receive your vaccine here in Clayton?

Give us a call at 575-374-7004 or 575-374-2585 (ext. 7162) and leave a message. We will get back to you to get you set up to receive your vaccine at the hospital.
