Arizona has administered more than 5 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine since December, with nearly 3 million individuals having received at least one dose and 2.27 million now fully vaccinated, Governor Doug Ducey and the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) announced today. 

Tens of thousands of appointments remain available for this week at state COVID-19 mass-vaccination sites in the Valley, Tucson, Yuma, and Flagstaff. Getting vaccinated is as simple as clicking a mouse, picking up the phone, or driving to a site. 

Of the 74,000 first-dose appointments made available last Friday, nearly 60,000 were still available this morning to receive the Pfizer vaccine at state sites. Locations of these and other sites offering COVID-19 vaccination are available at azdhs.gov/FindVaccine. 

 After a thorough safety review and recommendation by federal partners, the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) is advising providers to resume use of the one-dose Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) today expressed confidence that the vaccine is safe and effective in preventing COVID-19.
