You can join this life-saving campaign
PeaceHealth has joined 60 other top healthcare providers in the nation in the “Get the Vaccine to Save Lives” campaign. Ads, a website and a video highlight key facts about COVID-19 vaccines, which are a critical part of helping our community return to normal activities.

Our doctors, including Dr. Lorna Gober (pictured above with her father), are also helping get the word out about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines. Watch Dr. Gober's video.

Here are a few ways you can help:
  • Get your shot, if you're 16* or older. Read more about vaccine availability in Bellingham, Friday Harbor, Sedro-Woolley and neighboring communities.
  • Help others schedule their shot and/or offer a ride to their appointment.
  • Take the pledge below.

For the latest information on the coronavirus, visit our website.

*The FDA’s Emergency Use Authorization approval on May 10 of the Pfizer vaccine for children ages 12 to 15 was the first step in a series of necessary approvals before we can begin to schedule and distribute the vaccine to that age group. As soon as we receive final approval (possibly in the next several days), we will make appointments available. Please check back, and thank you for your patience.
