Our health care professionals recommend that all children, including those who already had COVID-19, should get vaccinated. The vaccines are the best defense against COVID-19 if you get the virus. The vaccines are proven to be highly effective in pushing back on symptoms and lowering the chances of being hospitalized if you get the virus. Parents and caregivers can reach their local clinics to schedule an appointment for vaccinations,\u201d said Navajo Nation President Jonathan Nez.<\/p>\n<p>Health care facilities on the Navajo&nbsp;Nation continue to administer COVID-19 vaccines. If you would like to receive one of the COVID-19 vaccines, please contact your&nbsp;health care provider and&nbsp;schedule an appointment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe tend to let our guard down around family and friends, but we must remain mindful of the risks as we see COVID-19 cases increase in areas around the Navajo Nation.
