Fundamental steps to help control the spread of COVID-19 in Mississippi.

COVID-19 Prevention

Vaccinations

Vaccinations against COVID-19 are widely available from MSDH county health departments as well as from local healthcare providers and pharmacies.

Like seasonal flu vaccines, COVID-19 vaccines are reformulated from time to time to match the currently circulating strains of COVID-19. Staying up to date with the most recent vaccine helps ensure maximum protection.

Testing

COVID-19 testing is widely available from local healthcare providers. We offer free testing at sites around the state.

Questions, Information and Assistance

You can call MSDH Monday through Friday 8 a.m.–5 p.m. at 855-767-0170 for COVID-19 information or for help making an appointment for testing or vaccination.
