COVID-19 vaccination sites have expanded in the Las Vegas Valley, and information changes quickly as the state works to obtain additional doses.

Eligible are those age 65 and up, healthcare workers, public safety and security, and some in the Frontline Communitu Support group.

First-dose appointments will not be available this week at the Southern Nevada Health District or its partner clinics, because of delays in vaccine shipments resulting from storms paralyzing parts of the country. The district will administer only second doses next week. First-dose appointments at the health district and partner clinics will resume March 1.

The City of Las Vegas is offering vaccination appointments for those

65 and up and utility workers at two sites on Feb. 24 and 25 from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. each day, according to a release. Each location will offer 300 doses.

The state has set up a call center to help answer questions about the COVID-19 vaccine at 800-401-0946. Agents will be available 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week.

SECOND DOSES

Both Moderna and Pfizer second doses are now being offered at the Las Vegas

Convention Center by appointment. Walkin appointments are no longer available, the Southern Nevada Health District said Feb. 12. The recommended interval for second shots is 28 days for the Moderna vaccine, and 21 days for Pfizer, although they can be administered up to 42 days after the first shot, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The convention center site is at 3150 Paradise Road, in the C-1 area of the facility’s Central Hall and is open Tuesday through Saturday.

The district will be taking only those who got their first doses at these sites or events: the health district offices on Decatur Boulevard, Cashman Center, Western High School, Jerome Mack Middle School and vaccination clinics hosted by Las Vegas, North Las Vegas, Henderson and Touro University.

People with questions or who need assistance making appointments can call the health district at 702-759-1900. The line is staffed during business hours, Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Second dose appointments at the Cashman Center run through Feb. 20. The appointments are only for people who received their first dose of the Pfizer vaccine on or before Jan. 21, or people who received the first dose of the Moderna vaccine on or before Jan. 15.

Some community clinics are requiring people to return for the second dose at the same location. This includes pharmacies, Roseman University, UMC at Encore and UNLV or CSN. Bring the vaccination card.
