North GA — Update: As of May 11, 2021, the FDA authorized Pfizer vaccine for children 12 through 17 - Health departments in North Georgia continue to make it easier for Georgians 12 and older to get vaccinated against COVID-19 at public health clinics in Cherokee, Fannin, Gilmer, Murray, Pickens and Whitfield counties. As some of these county clinics move from their current off-site COVID-19 Vaccine Clinics back to the health departments and undergo some operational time changes, all the clinics will continue offering COVID-19 vaccinations on a walk-in, no-appointment-needed basis, and yet residents will still have the option to register ahead for a dose at gta-vras.powerappsportals.us or by calling 1-888-457-0186.
