Get Vaccinated!
All eligible Minnesotans are encouraged to get vaccinated and boosted. Minnesota is offering boosters at the state’s Mall of America (16+) and MSP Airport (18+) vaccine sites as well as other state-run and state-hosted 5- to 11-year-old vaccine clinics, including those hosted at schools.
Minnesotans can find boosters anywhere vaccines are offered. For ages 18 and over, the booster dose does not have to be the same brand of vaccine as your initial series. Minnesotans 16 and 17 years old must get a Pfizer booster shot. Visit mn.gov/vaccine or contact a provider to get boosted and vaccinated. Find information specifically about boosters here.
Friendly reminder students need to wear a mask while on school buses to and from school each day. They should not leave the house without a mask, a required school supply.
Do you have a KN95 or N95 mask and want to reuse it? These sturdy masks can be used more than once. This article gives information on how to safely reuse and know when to dispose of it.
