    COVID-19 Vaccine Updates

    UW Medicine follows Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) vaccine administration guidelines. We will not administer vaccines outside of these guidelines.

    UW Medicine is not currently administering the COVID-19 vaccine. The updated COVID-19 vaccine will be available soon. Please check this page regularly for the latest information.

    Primary Series and Boosters

    UW Medicine provides the bivalent primary and booster doses from Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna. You do not need to be a current UW Medicine patient to receive a vaccine.

    For the latest information of vaccines and boosters, visit https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/stay-up-to-date.html

    Note: Not all shots are available at all locations.

    Locations will be updated when the COVID-19 vaccines will be available for scheduling.

    Vaccine records

    Can I add a record of my COVID-19 vaccine to MyChart if I received it outside the UW Medicine system?

    If you received your COVID-19 vaccine outside of the UW Medicine system, you can add a record of it to MyChart by sending a photo of your vaccine card to your provider through MyChart or by bringing your vaccine card to your next appointment with a UW Medicine provider. If you received your vaccination through UW Medicine, a record of your vaccination will be added automatically to our system.

    How do I verify my COVID-19 vaccination status with the State of Washington?

    You may confirm your vaccination status by calling the state’s vaccine hotline at 1.833.VAX.HELP. You can also access your family’s immunization information online at doh.wa.gov under: Find immunization information.

    How do I correct my COVID-19 vaccination records in the Washington State Immunization Information System (WAIIS)?

    You may do this in one of three ways. If you were vaccinated by a healthcare provider, you should contact the provider’s office to have your immunization record verified and corrected. If you were vaccinated at a site that remains open, you can return to that site and request a correction from the clinic supervisor. If the site where you were vaccinated is now closed, you can email waiisrecords@doh.wa.gov to request assistance.

    What do I do if I lost my COVID-19 vaccine card or need proof of my vaccination status?

    If you lost your vaccine card or need to prove your vaccine status and you were vaccinated through UW Medicine, you may confirm your vaccination status in one of the following ways:

    1. Log into MyChart and print out this information from your MyChart home page,
    2. Contact the UW Medicine Health Records department and request a copy,
    3. Request your care team print out your immunization history during your next clinic appointment or visit
    4. Call the state’s vaccine hotline at 1.833.VAX.HELP or access your family’s immunization information online at doh.wa.gov under: Find immunization information.

    You can also get a digital copy of your COVID-19 vaccination record at: WAverify.doh.wa.gov.
