SAFFORD – The Graham County Department of Health and Human Services would like to announce that local residents age 55 years and older are now eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.

If you are 55 years and older, please contact your primary care physician for a COVID-19 vaccination appointment.

At this time, our health department is scheduling a limited number of appointments, for the 55 years and older age group, as we continue our efforts to work with our community partners by vaccinating the essential workers and previous priority groups.

Those who are 55 years and older and do not have a primary care physician may register at www.graham.az.gov for an appointment with the health department.

In addition, Graham County businesses may register their employee COVID-19 vaccinations by clicking here.

At this time, we are asking everyone to please be patient. Our goal is to provide every resident the opportunity for COVID-19 vaccine as quickly as can be made available.
