Everyone who is 5 or older should get vaccinated. People who are younger than 18 will get a Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. People who are older than 18 can choose between the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, the Moderna vaccine, or the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

You should get vaccinated even if you are older, if you are immune compromised, if you already had COVID, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Everyone who is 5 or older is eligible to be vaccinated, and should get vaccinated.

Being vaccinated against COVID-19 is the best defense against getting a serious case of COVID. Most people report that if they do get COVID after being vaccinated, it’s mild and they don’t end up in the hospital.

People who have been vaccinated are less likely to catch COVID and are less likely to spread it to others, including people who have not been vaccinated yet.

Getting vaccinated is the best way to protect yourself, your family, your loved ones, and your community.

All of the COVID-19 vaccines are free. They are available to anyone in the United States. You do not need to provide identification to receive a vaccine. COVID-19 vaccines have been given to 200 million people in the United States and more than a million people in Philadelphia. They are safe and effective.

COVID-19 vaccines are available for free in hundreds of locations throughout Philadelphia. Health Department vaccine clinics are available across the city. These clinics have appointments and will accept walk-ins without an appointment. Many doctors’ offices, pharmacies, hospitals, vaccine partners, and clinics are also offering COVID-19 vaccinations. Visit vaccines.gov to find one of these vaccine providers.
