For immediate release: November 23, 2021

The Gallatin City-County Health Department is saddened to announce that one more Gallatin County resident has passed away from complications due to COVID-19.

See the full press release here.

Last week, the CDC and the ACIP expanded recommendations for booster shots to include all adults ages 18 years and older who received a Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccine at least six months after their second dose. While we are still focused on providing primary series vaccinations for those who qualify, providers in Gallatin County are also giving booster doses for all three COVID-19 vaccines.
