COVID-19 Testing and Vaccinations

If you have any symptoms of COVID-19 or think you may have been exposed, it's important to get tested, regardless of whether you've been vaccinated before or had the infection previously. While waiting for your test results, it's crucial to avoid contact with others and follow the guidance given by your healthcare provider.

Harris County Public Health offers childhood and adult vaccines through state programs to ensure accessible, high-quality immunization services for all residents, aiming to prevent and control vaccine-preventable diseases. Visit our Immunizations & Vaccinations page to learn more.
