Rio Grande Hospital COVID-19

June 7, 2023 Update

The Public Health Emergency (PHE) for COVID-19 officially ended on May 11, 2023! It was a long time coming!

Many things have changed with COVID-19 as time has gone by. One of those being the COVID-19 vaccination type to a bivalent vaccine. Rio Grande Hospital Clinic does carry the vaccine if you are needing it or need a booster. You can call 719-657-2418 to schedule an appointment.

Please be aware that COVID is still out there, however, we have come a long way worldwide from when it started and will continue to grow and change as new recommendations are released.

 For those hospitalized with COVID-19 Remdesivir is still being administered and for those that are not hospitalized and meet the criteria Paxlovid is also still recommended. If you have any questions regarding Paxlovid please contact your Primary Care Provider. They will be able to answer any questions and then prescribe it if you qualify.
