Key Things to know about COVID-19 Vaccines

FAQ’s about COVID 19 Vaccines 

This message is being sent to you by Conejos County Public Health.  
 
As we are experiencing a rise in our positive cases in Conejos County we ask that you spread the word for these testing clinics. (Attachment)  The SLV has one of the highest positivity rates in the state right now. The providers listed below also continue to offer vaccines. Online signup links for these providers can be found at www.slvphp.com.
If you have symptoms of COVID-19, you can also get tested through our regular testing providers besides these two testing clinics:
  • Rio Grande Hospital 719-657-4990
  • SLV Health Respiratory Clinic 719-589-3000 ext. 9 
  • Valley-Wide Health Systems 719-589-3658 ext. 4 (M-F), 719-589-2562 (Sa/Su)
We would also like to remind you to continue safe practices of wearing masks, social distancing, and proper handwashing.  There has been a trend in our community to get a little lax in these practices and we want to get our County back to a healthier state and stop the spread.
