COVID-19 Vaccines

This page answers common questions you may have about the COVID-19 vaccines. We understand that there is uncertainty around new vaccines and want to offer as much reassurance and information as possible.  

We are now offering Covid-19 vaccines to anyone age 6 months and up, by appointment. You do not have to be a current NHS patient to get a vaccine. Vaccine appointments are available at all 4 clinic locations at varying times, call 612-588-9411 to schedule an appointment!

NHS offers first shots, second shots, and booster shots, in addition to 2 types of Covid-19 vaccines (Moderna and Pfizer). Please tell us which vaccine you want at the time of scheduling.

If you believe you are eligible for a Covid-19 booster vaccine, please call the clinic (612-588-9411) and ask to speak to a nurse to discuss Covid-19 booster options.

Is the vaccine safe for children? 

Should I get the vaccine if I’ve already had COVID-19? 

Yes. While data is limited on this matter, it may be possible to contract COVID-19 again if you have already had it. To avoid becoming sick again and spreading the disease to others, vaccination is the best choice.
