The Davis County Health Department continues to operate its COVID-19 Mass Vaccination Clinic at the Legacy Events Center in Farmington. Recently, Governor Cox announced that the vaccine would be available for all Utahns who are 16 years of age and older. Anyone looking for an appointment can visit the scheduling website using the button link below, or contact the call center at 801-525-4900, Monday-Friday from 8:30 am to 5 pm. This is also the number that residents will need to call if they need to cancel or reschedule an appointment.

As the vaccine becomes available to more people, please keep the following in mind:

• Davis County Health Department is primarily administering the Pfizer vaccine. We do not anticipate receiving the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. If you'd like to receive a different vaccine than what is currently being administered, visit https://vaccinefinder.org/.
• The first available shot is the best shot you can get!! If you are having a hard time finding an available appointment at the DCHD clinic, please look at all your options as there are some other vaccine partners in the County.

The clinic had several exciting moments during the month of March!

On the afternoon of March 11th, Governor Cox and Lt. Governor Henderson visited the clinic and spent some time volunteering! Governor Cox greeted residents at the front door and directed them to the nursing stations to receive their vaccine. Lt. Governor Henderson spent some time directing cars into the nursing stations and worked with nurse assistants to see how our data entry process works.

On March 18th, just after 1:00 pm, the clinic administered its 100,000th dose of the COVID-19 vaccine!!! Pretty exciting!!! We look forward to the 200,000th dose and hope to see many of you soon.

The Receiving Center is a facility and a resource available to our community as a first line of crisis intervention for individuals 18 and over experiencing mental illness, substance use, or other behavioral crisis situations.

The Receiving Center is located in the Justice Complex at 907 W. Clark Lane in Farmington. It is being run by Davis Behavioral Health, a leader for mental health services in Utah and a partner with Davis County. This facility also offers an alternative to incarceration and emergency room services.

The Receiving Center opened in Dec 2019 as a result of collaborative planning between multiple Davis County agencies. Staff take referrals from the community, family, law enforcement, hospitals and self-referred individuals who meet the specific target population. Individuals stay up to 24 hours or until the crisis has stabilized. For more information call 801-513-2800 or use the link below:
