COVID-19 Vaccine Phase 2 Appointments Booked at This Time

(Sedgwick County, Kan.) – Currently, all vaccination appointments available to residents aged 83 and older are booked. Appointments will reopen if there are cancellations or when more vaccine is provided to the Health Department. The County will not schedule more appointments than the vaccine available.

The COVID-19 vaccine is one tool in our community toolbox that can help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Please continue to follow the three W’s: wash your hands, wear a mask, and watch your distance by keeping six feet of space between you and others.

If you scheduled an appointment, please allow at least 45 minutes for it and follow the steps below.

County Pledge:

As more vaccine is received, the Sedgwick County Health Department will vaccinate more people while following guidance from CDC, KDHE, and Sedgwick County Health Officer Dr. Garold Minns. The vaccination schedule is designed to assure that all who want to be vaccinated will have that opportunity. The implementation of the vaccination schedule is dependent on the manufacturing and distribution schedule from vaccine providers. The County will not schedule more appointments than the vaccine available.
