It will take many months to get everyone vaccinated so it is critical that everyone continue to take measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

  • Wear a Face Mask
  • Maintain 6 feet of social distance from others
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water or use hand sanitizer
  • Disinfect frequently touched hard surfaces
  • Avoid gatherings with anyone you do not live with
  • Stay home as much as you can

This coming Thursday, February 11th, they are planning a Community-Wide Vaccination Clinic for Warm Springs’ people 55 and older and veterans, at the Agency Longhouse.  You do need to call for an appointment so they can reserve your vaccine.  Call 541-553-2131.
