Slots remain for Sky Lakes COVID-19 vaccination clinics

The following is a press release from Sky Lakes Medical Center

As of early this afternoon, appointments were still available for this week’s COVID-19 vaccination clinics for Klamath County residents 65 and older, but slots are filling fast.

Sky Lakes Medical Center will provide the no-charge vaccinations Friday on the fourth floor in the original medical center, and on Saturday at the Sky Lakes Collaborative Health Center on the medical center campus.

The first-dose vaccinations are by appointment only and can be scheduled by calling 1-833-606-4370 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.; no walk-in slots or on-site appointments are available.

Once you have an appointment for either of the vaccination clinics, you are assured of having a dose reserved.

Individuals who are 65 and older became eligible for COVID-19 vaccinations this week, according to the Oregon Health Authority’s phased distribution of COVID-19 vaccines.

Sky Lakes leaders encourage everyone who’s eligible to be vaccinated against COVID-19 to help achieve widespread community immunity.
