MOUNT VERNON, Wash. — Skagit County residents who are eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine can now schedule their vaccinations at several locations.
Those 65 or older, or those 50 or older who live in a multi-generational household are eligible to receive the vaccine, along with those in Phase 1A.
Individuals can schedule appointments with Skagit Regional Health’s Mount Vernon or Smokey Point clinics.
The Mount Vernon Haggen Pharmacy is also scheduling appointments and Island Hospital has started booking appointments for established patients or those who live in the hospital district.
The Skagit Valley Herald reports La Conner Drug is still vaccinating people in Phase 1A — mainly health care workers, first responders and residents of long-term care facilities — until it receives its next shipment.
People can schedule appointments at Island Drug in Oak Harbor, or at La Conner Drugs when available.
Skagit County Public Health will begin vaccinations Jan. 26 at the Skagit County Fairgrounds, 501 Taylor St. in Mount Vernon, and started taking appointments.
Appointments can be made by calling 360-416-1500 until the state Department of Health launches its registration tool.
