Learn about current eligibility

Covenant Health has been focused on vaccinating health care workers in our region as well as CDC identified high risk populations. Covenant Medical Group and Grace Clinic prioritized their established patients for the limited supply that was provided, and those vaccinations are now committed to the patients. At this time, no additional doses are available through our CMG and Grace clinics.

We encourage you to monitor the news channels and social media for updates from the City of Lubbock Health Department regarding availability of vaccines. The City has created a helpful website that has updates for their COVID-19 vaccine clinic. If spots are available, the link will be listed here: https://ci.lubbock.tx.us/departments/civic-center/covid-19-vaccine-clinic.
