We love our kids in the RGV! Now, everyone in the United States ages 5 and older is eligible to get vaccinated against COVID. Access to a COVID vaccine for children ages 5–11 is easy. Throughout the communities of the Rio Grande Valley, you can easily schedule an appointment for your child (ages 5 and older) to receive a COVID vaccine at local pharmacies, school districts, and more. There are also vaccine clinics that offer walk-in availability.

Getting vaccinated is the best way to protect our families and make life safer for everyone. GETTING VACCINATED IS THE BEST WAY TO PROTECT OUR FAMILIES AND MAKE LIFE SAFER FOR THE VALLEY AND THE ONES WE LOVE. #WECANDOTHIS
