From the Mayor’s Office:
“Mayor Muriel Bowser and DC Health announced that the new Ward 3 COVID Center will open on Friday, February 4. The Ward 3 COVID Center will be located at 5335 Wisconsin Avenue NW.
At all of the COVID Centers, individuals have access to vaccinations, boosters, take-home rapid antigen tests, PCR tests, and KN95 masks.
To date, DC Health has opened seven COVID Centers in Wards 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. With extended hours and fixed locations in each ward, the COVID Centers represent the District’s long-term commitment to ensuring health equity and accessibility for all District residents.
All sites will be open six days a week, as late as 9 p.m., and sites rotate days off so that on any day of the week multiple COVID Centers are open across DC. The schedule for the Ward 3 site opening Friday is listed below, along with the schedules of the seven existing sites.
DC Health also reminds residents that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has updated its recommendations for vaccines and booster shots. Boosters are now recommended and available for people 12 and older. If you are 12 or older and received your second dose of the Pfizer or 18 and older and received your second dose of Moderna vaccine on or before September 3, 2021, you are now eligible for your booster. Anyone 18 or older who received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine before December 3, 2021, is eligible for their booster. And anyone 18 or older who is moderately or severely immunocompromised and received their third dose of Pfizer or Moderna before September 3, 2021, is also eligible to receive their booster.
There are four easy ways to get your vaccine or booster in the District:
Visit a walk-up vaccine clinic or COVID Center.
Make an at-home vaccination appointment by calling 1-855-363-0333.
Make an appointment with your health care provider.
Find other opportunities to get vaccinated by visiting vaccines.gov.
