Protect yourself, your family, and your co-workers: Get flu and COVID-19 shots

King County wants employees to be healthy so you can feel good, get the most out of life, and do your best work for the community we serve.

This year, the Washington Department of Health (DOH) recommends that everyone six months and older get a flu vaccine and the updated 2025-2026 COVID-19 vaccine. To ensure access to these vaccines, DOH has also issued a standing order authorizing all qualified healthcare providers to vaccinate individuals six months and older, including pregnant people. If you’ve recently had COVID-19, you may want to delay getting a COVID-19 vaccine for up to three months. Learn more on how to get your vaccine in the community here.

Supervisors: Here is a printer-friendly PDF of vaccine resources to post at your worksites for employees who do not have access to email.
