The Harris County Public Health Department is extending their closures for Covid-19 operations at least through Thursday (2-18-2021). This includes both vaccinations and testing. People who have already reserved vaccination times will hear from the department with rescheduling information. Even if they miss that communication, they should not appear either day. Keep in touch with the department's website for future developments.
From a recent press release:
- Testing – All testing sites will remain closed until Friday, Feb. 19 at 12:00 PM. HCPH is working to send cancellation notices and reschedule appointments at this time.
- Vaccines – All vaccination sites will remain closed until Friday, Feb. 19 at 12:00 PM. HCPH will send cancellation notices via text or email so residents can reschedule appointments once it is safe for operations to continue. *Please note-based on CDC guidance, being delayed in receiving a second dose of COVID-19 vaccine does not impact the vaccines overall effectiveness.
