Summer
is a great time to travel and connect with family and friends. Before
you pack your suitcase or join your family for a backyard barbeque,
make sure you’re up to date on COVID-19 vaccines and know how to
protect yourself and others from COVID-19.
Traveling and Gathering
Preparing
for Travel
Learn
about COVID-19 vaccination and testing requirements and other
health recommendations in preparation for your summer travel.
Make sure you are up to date with your COVID-19
vaccines before travel.
Find a
COVID-19 vaccine or booster: Search vaccines.gov, text your ZIP code to
438829, or call 1-800-232-0233 to find locations near you.
Get Vaccinated Even If You Had COVID-19
You
should get a COVID-19 vaccine even if you already had COVID-19. The
vaccine provides extra protection for your immune system. People who
already had COVID-19 and do not get vaccinated after their recovery
are more likely to get COVID-19 again than those who get vaccinated
after their recovery.
If
you currently have COVID-19, you should wait to get your vaccine
until your symptoms are gone (if you had symptoms) and you are done
with your isolation period.
