Community Vaccine Information

As our schools and community work to bring this pandemic under control, we encourage all families to consider if the COVID-19 vaccine is a good option for their children and loved ones. BSD recommends seeking guidance from a medical professional should one have questions whether a vaccination is appropriate for oneself or a family member. As our state and nation begin to reopen and move toward a more normal future, COVID-19 vaccination may play an increasing role in reducing further social restrictions.

Bayless will strive to provide vaccine information and access to our community by alerting you to upcoming vaccination events available in the area. One efficient and convenient way to gain access to the COVID-19 vaccine information, including vaccination appointments, is through BJC at this site: www.bjc.org/vaccine
