TEXAS, USA — The Northeast Texas Public Health District (NET Health) has announced that COVID vaccines are available for all adults and anyone over the age of 12.
According to NET Health, people over the age of 18 can receive the one-dose Johnson & Johnson or the two-dose Pfizer vaccine while eligibility to receive the two-dose Pfizer vaccine is expanded to anyone over the age of 12.
“Everyone is asked to first make an appointment by visiting NETHealthCOVID19.org and selecting the “Get Vaccinated” link,” says George Roberts, NET Health CEO. “You can then select an available appointment time to receive a COVID vaccine.”
Anyone under the age of 8 must be accompanied by their parent or guardian when coming to any NET Health COVID vaccination clinics. If a child has health insurance such as Medicaid or is listed as a dependent on their parent’s health insurance, please bring the health insurance card on the day of the vaccine appointment.
