How to get a vaccine in Snohomish County
SNOHOMISH COUNTY — Starting April 15, everybody over age 16 will become eligibile for a COVID-19 vaccine in Washington state.
To get set up, a vaccine locator website for finding appointments is at https://vaccinelocator.doh.wa.gov/
The website has information on where vaccination appointments are available in real-time.
People can call for assistance in booking an appointment through the county health district’s COVID-19 call center. The number is 425-339-5278.
The call center is intended for people who do not have internet access, need language assistance, or have other barriers to online registration, the Snohomish Health District says.
Vaccines are free and do not require insurance.
The county has seven other vaccination sites. Among them are the Evergreen State Fairgrounds in Monroe, the Arlington Airport, the Angel of the Winds arena in downtown Everett, Boom City in Tulalip, the Ash Way Park & Ride in Lynnwood, a walk-up center near the Boeing factory and at Edmonds College.
Numerous pharmacies have the vaccine as well, and appointments can be made through the state locator, which is again https://vaccinelocator.doh.wa.gov/
