Making Vaccine Available for All
|
|
Maricopa County’s goal is to make COVID-19 vaccine available to everyone who wants it, wherever they live in the county. We want to meet people where they are at in our community, and to ensure that those who, historically, have had a harder time getting health care can find a COVID-19 shot that is:
- Available in convenient locations and times
- Provided in a safe, trusted environment
- Easy to sign up for
- Culturally relevant with information in many languages
- Accessible for people with a variety of functional needs

Who Has Already Been Vaccinated?
The latest data show:
• 1.3 million Maricopa County residents are fully vaccinated.
• Women are getting vaccinated at a higher rate than men.
• Older populations have been vaccinated at higher rates than younger populations, which makes sense because they have had access to the vaccine for a longer period of time.

Who Is Eligible To Get Vaccinated?
Where Can I Get Vaccinated?
In Maricopa County, vaccine is available at places like large vaccination sites, pharmacies, healthcare providers, federally qualified health centers, worksites, and many local ”pop-up” sites. Visit Maricopa.gov/COVID19VaccineLocations to search for a Pfizer provider or clinic location near you. You can also search by ZIP code or by vaccine type. If you’d prefer we come to you, sign up for email alerts to learn about pop-up vaccination events in your area.
When looking for an appointment for yourself or a family member, remember:
- Pfizer vaccine is authorized for anyone age 12 and up
- Moderna vaccine and Johnson and Johnson vaccine are authorized for anyone age 18 and up

What If I Still Have Questions About Vaccines?
It’s okay to have questions. We want to help answer them. Visit Maricopa.gov/COVID19VaccineFacts to get informed. Or, if you prefer, talk with a trusted medical provider who knows your unique situation. Your provider may be able to speak to your specific concerns.
