COVID-19

COVID-19 is a respiratory disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, a coronavirus discovered in 2019. The virus spreads mainly from person to person through respiratory droplets and small particles produced when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks.

Illness can range from mild to severe, though not everyone infected with the virus develops symptoms.
Some people are more likely than others to get very sick if they get COVID-19. This includes people who are older, immunocompromised, have certain disabilities or have underlying health condition.

COVID-19 Vaccine

COVID-19 vaccines continue to be the most effective tool against serious illness, hospitalization, and death related to COVID-19. The CDC recommends everyone six months or older get an updated COVID-19 vaccine to protect against the potentially serious outcomes of COVID-19 illness.

Updated COVID-19 vaccines will be available starting in September 2023.
Check with your military hospital or clinic or health care provider for availability and how to schedule an appointment to get the vaccine.
