COVID-19 Information
Last updated: October 13, 2023
JCMG COVID VACCINE CLINIC IS CLOSED
In preparation for the new monovalent vaccine coming out fall 2023, JCMG is permanently closing the COVID Vaccine Clinic effective Monday, August 14. Once the next COVID vaccine comes out in Fall 2023, JCMG patients will be able to receive it from their primary care provider’s clinic.
JCMG TEMPORARILY SUSPENDING COVID-19 IMMUNIZATIONS
Patients will not be able to receive a COVID vaccine from JCMG until later this fall when the new monovalent vaccine is available, which is expected to be late September 2023. This is intended to coincide with the expected increase in COVID cases in the winter – similar to the timing of when patients receive influenza vaccines at JCMG.
WHERE TO RECEIVE COVID VACCINES
When COVID vaccines become available later this fall, patients can obtain them from their primary care provider’s clinic. JCMG Family Medicine, Pediatrics, and Internal Medicine providers will be giving COVID vaccines to their patients.
