Prince George's County COVID-19 Vaccination Update

Dear Prince Georgians:

  • As we continue to see an increase in vaccination rates, I am proud to announce 81% of our seniors ages 65 – 84 have been vaccinated, followed by 77% of seniors ages 85 and older, 72% of residents ages 60 – 64, over two-thirds of residents ages 50 – 59, 60% of residents ages 40 – 49, 50% of residents ages 30 – 39, 44% of residents ages 20 – 29, and 30% of residents ages 12 – 19.
  • In addition, the total number of Hispanic residents receiving at least 1 dose of the COVD-19 vaccine has now surpassed all other ethnicities in the County except for Black/African American residents.
  • The Six Flags mass-vaccination site will close operations on July 17. A limited number of no-appointment, drive-thru vaccinations are still available for residents ages 12+.
  • Finally, as a reminder, appointments are no longer necessary at all COVID-19 vaccine clinics operated by the County Health Department. Individuals who live or work in the County can walk up to County Health Department vaccination clinics with no appointment needed, or book an appointment in advance online at mypgc.us/COVIDVaccine. 


Yours in Service,
