CARSON CITY (KTNV) — Today, Nevada Health Response announced two updates related to the State’s COVID-19 immunization efforts.

First, the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services has launched a vaccination call center to answer questions and assist those who may need help making an appointment. Through the call center Nevadans will be able to access county-specific updates and information as more Nevadans become eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.

The call center is open 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week and can be reached at 1-800-401-0946.

For those with internet access, the Department of Health and Human Services continues to encourage residents to go online to find the latest information on vaccinations through NVCOVIDFighter.org and NVHealthResponse.nv.gov.

Additionally, the DHHS Office of Analytics has added a dashboard tab to provide weekly immunization numbers. This page includes total doses reported as administered in Nevada WebIZ, total vaccinations reported as initiated and total vaccinations reported as completed.

The dashboard can be found on the NVHealthResponse.nv.gov home page as a new tab on the existing COVID-19 dashboard.
