Respiratory Illness Vaccinations

CDC recommends that everyone ages 6 months and older be vaccinated for protection against COVID-19. Details on which vaccines are available for each age group and how to stay up to date on recommended COVID-19 vaccines can be found on the CDC’s Stay Up to Date with COVID-19 Vaccines page. The Vaccination Clinic is currently administering the following vaccine type(s):

• Moderna/Spikevax COVID-19 2024-2025 monovalent vaccine for individuals ages 6 months+

• Please reschedule your appointment if you are experiencing any signs or symptoms of COVID-19.
• Facial coverings are currently optional when visiting the Boise State Vaccination Clinic.
• You will be able to download or receive a paper copy of the fact sheet that tells you more about the specific COVID-19 vaccine you are being offered. Each authorized COVID-19 vaccine has its own fact sheet that contains information to help you understand the risks and benefits of receiving that specific vaccine.
  • Moderna fact sheet
• Information will be provided to you about V-safe— an optional, free, smartphone-based tool that lets you check-in with the CDC after you get vaccinated for COVID-19. You can quickly tell the CDC if you have any side effects after getting the COVID-19 vaccine. Depending on your answers, someone from the CDC may call to check on you and get more information. V-safe will also remind you to get your next COVID-19 vaccine dose if you need one.
• It’s normal to have mild to moderate side effects for a few days after getting a vaccine.
• It takes time for your body to build immunity and protection after any vaccination. You are considered immune two weeks after you get your last dose (second dose in a two-dose series or one dose of a single-dose vaccine) of the vaccine.

Details can be found on our Vaccination Services and Charges page.

The purpose of COVID-19 vaccination is to help protect yourself and others from getting sick. Do not come to the Boise State Vaccination Clinic if you are feeling ill. Instead, follow the instructions in your confirmation email to cancel or reschedule your appointment.

Individuals who were vaccinated in Idaho can view, download, and share their immunization records from Idaho’s Immunization Reminder Information System (IRIS) using a health record mobile app called Docket®. To learn more about electronically accessing your vaccination information and Docket®, please visit the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare’s Immunization Records page. You cannot receive a copy of a vaccination from this app/website if your vaccination was administered in another state.
