Everyone ages 6 months and older should get a 2024–2025 COVID-19 vaccine.
The COVID-19 vaccine helps protect you from severe disease, hospitalization and death. Vaccine protection decreases over time, so it is important to stay up to date with your COVID-19 vaccine.
THD will begin offering the updated 2024-205 COVID-19 vaccine on October 1, 2024. Appointments can be scheduled online or by calling 918-582-9355. Walk-in services are available with no appointment from 8:00 am – 4:00 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays at our Central Regional Health Department and North Regional Health & Wellness Center locations.
Clients need to bring an ID and insurance card. Those 6 months to 17 years old will need a parent or guardian present for consent to receive the vaccine.

Other Opportunities
The vaccine is widely available at many local doctors’ offices, health care systems, pharmacies and big retail chains like Walmart.
Children through age 18 years are eligible to receive vaccines at no charge through the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program if any of the following apply: they are uninsured, Medicaid eligible, Native American Indian, Native Alaskan, or their insurance policy does not cover vaccines. Infants, children and adolescents must be accompanied by their parent or guardian to receive immunizations.
THD currently accepts Cigna, Community Care, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Health Choice, Medicare and SoonerCare Medicaid for immunizations.
Coverage can vary among different insurance plans. Please bring your insurance card and photo ID with you. It is always advisable to check with your insurance provider for coverage specifics before receiving immunizations, as you may be responsible for charges that are not covered by your insurance policy.
Uninsured adults or those whose health insurance does not cover all COVID-19 vaccine cost are able to receive the COVID-19 vaccine at no cost through the Tulsa Health Department while supplies last.
Side effects after getting a COVID-19 vaccine can vary from person to person. Some people experience a little discomfort and can continue to go about their day. Others have side effects that affect their ability to do daily activities. Side effects generally go away in a few days. Even if you don’t experience any side effects, your body is building protection against the virus that causes COVID-19. Adverse events (serious health problems) are rare but can cause long-term health problems. They usually happen within six weeks of getting a vaccine.
The most commonly reported side effects were:
