Beginning Monday, December 13, Cherokee Nation will offer the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine booster to 16 and 17 year olds. Following CDC guidelines, the booster is approved for those who have completed their initial Pfizer vaccine series at least six months prior. It is not approved for those who have received the Modena vaccine or the one dose Johnson and Johnson vaccine. According to the CDC, the booster can increase immune response, and improve protection against getting infected with COVID-19. The COVID-19 vaccines, including the Pfizer booster are available at any of the tribe's outpatient health centers from 8a.m. to 4p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. Walk-ins are welcome. Appointments can also be scheduled by calling 1-539-234-4099. Sequoyah students who turn in proof of receiving the booster to Nurse Ogden by the June 1, 2022, deadline will receive the $300 booster incentive. We are trying to set up another vaccination clinic at Sequoyah. We will share information about that as it becomes available.
