VACCINE INFORMATION

COVID vaccines are available at Lummi Tribal Health Center. You must have a chart at the clinic in order to get a vaccine. Please call the front desk at 360-384-0464 to schedule an appointment.

LTHC also collaborates with the Washington State Department of Health to organize vaccine clinics. These clinics are open to everyone. It is not required to have a chart at the clinic. The next event is on Friday March 31st from 2 to 5 pm at the LIBC Admin Building lobby. 

AM I UP TO DATE ON VACCINATION?

  • COVID-19 vaccines and updated bivalent Omicron boosters are recommended for most people, but the details depend on your age and what type of vaccine you received for your primary series (see below for details)
  • Moderately to severely immunocompromised individuals are advised to get more vaccines than other people - please discuss with your primary care provider
  • Updated Moderna boosters are approved for everyone ages 6 months and up, as long as they've completed their Moderna primary vaccine series and it has been at least 2 months since their last COVID vaccine and it has been at least 1 month since they recovered from a COVID infection.
  • Updated Pfizer boosters are approved for everyone ages 5-11, as long as they've completed their primary vaccine series and it has been at least 2 months since their last COVID vaccine and it has been at least 1 month since they recovered from a COVID infection. Boosters are not approved for people ages 6 months to 4 years old who received Pfizer vaccines for their primary series.
  • Everyone 12 and up is eligible to receive an updated Pfizer or Moderna booster, as long as they've completed their primary series and it has been at least 2 months since their last COVID vaccine, they have not received an MPV (monkeypox) vaccine (aka Jynneos) in the last month, and it has been at least 1 month since they recovered from a COVID infection.
  • If you already received an updated Omicron/bivalent booster in Fall 2022 or Winter 2023, you are up to date on your vaccines and are not able to receive any additional vaccines or boosters at this time.

The CDC has developed a tool to help you determine if you are due for a booster. It can be found here.

COVID-19 TESTING

At Lummi Public Health we’re noticing that it can sometimes take several days before an at home rapid COVID test is positive for people who are infected with the current type of COVID variant. If you are feeling sick with symptoms of COVID but have a negative test at home, please continue isolating and take another rapid test every 24 hours until you start feeling better. If your symptoms are getting worse or you still aren’t feeling better after 2 days, contact your doctor to get evaluated for other illnesses. This link has more information about “false negative” rapid COVID tests.

MASK INFORMATION

High-quality N95 and KN95 masks are available. Please ask at the COVID-19 testing drive through or call the clinic at 360-384-0464 to arrange pick up.
