Teton County Wyo. COVID-19 vaccine clinic moves location, changes hours

JACKSON, Wyo. (KIFI) – The Teton County Health Department’s COVID-19 Vaccine Clinic is moving back to the Health Department’s building, located at 460 E. Pearl Ave, after being at the new Target building since the end of March.

“We were so grateful to have the opportunity to use the Presbyterian Church, Senior Center, and Target during the Winter and Spring," Teton County Health Department’s Nurse Manager Janet Garland said. "These locations allowed us to exponentially increase the number of community members we were able to vaccinate each day. The donation of these spaces is one of the reasons why we have such a large percentage of our population fully vaccinated at this time.”

The new Teton County Health Department COVID-19 vaccine clinic hours will be:

• Wednesdays: 3:00pm-7:00pm
• Thursdays: 8:30am-12:00pm and 1:00pm- 3:30pm
• Fridays: 8:30am-12:00pm and 1:00pm -5:30pm
• Saturdays: 8:30am-12:30pm
