ST. GEORGE — The latest set of reservation slots for people to receive the COVID-19 vaccine went online at 9 a.m. Monday.

Updated Feb. 8 at 12:30 p.m.: All first dose clinic and second dose Moderna slots have been filled in Washington County. Second dose Pfizer slots remain in Washington County. First and second dose slots remain in Iron, Beaver, Garfield and Kane counties.

Anyone age 70 and over falls into the primary group eligible for the immunizations at this point. Also remaining eligible are K-12 teachers and staff, first responders and medical workers.

While many of the slots are already full as of publication of this report, there was a slight increase in the number of reservation slots this week, and Gov. Spencer Cox said last week that an increasing supply from the federal government will result in a quadrupling of available reservation slots by the end of the month. In addition, Smith’s stores in St. George and Cedar City will begin offering a limited number of Moderna COVID-19 vaccinations starting Wednesday.

The Moderna vaccine will be the primary vaccine provided by the Southwest Utah Public Health Department, with the Pfizer vaccine being used as a secondary supply. 

For those who have received the Pfizer vaccine from the department, Pfizer-specific second-shot clinics are now being offered by the department. Two shots are required of both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines for full immunization, and both shots must be of the same vaccine.

Links to register follow below and will be updated as they are added and are filled.
