<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: "Aptos", sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">Beginning Monday, October 21, the Durham County Department of Public Health will offer appointments for updated Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines (2024-2025
formula) for all people age six months and older. Due to limited vaccine supply, vaccinations are available by appointment only. Appointments can be made by calling 919-560-7608.</span></p>

<div style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: "Aptos", sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">Vaccination is covered by most private insurance, Medicare, and Medicaid, and is available at no cost for people who do not have insurance. Those with insurance
should bring their insurance card to their appointment. At this time, Prizer and Moderna brand vaccinations are available while supplies last; Novavax vaccines are not currently available. </span></p>
