COVID-19 Vaccination
The City of Nashua Division of Public Health and Community Services (DPHCS) encourages our community to get vaccinated against COVID-19!
Even with vaccination, it is important for everyone to continue practicing the following public health recommendations, including:
- Stay home if you are sick, except to seek medical attention
- Cover your mouth and nose by wearing mask in public
- Stay at least six feet away from people who do not live in your household
- Avoid large crowds and poorly ventilated places
- Wash your hands often and use hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol in between
"New Hampshire is committed to a safe and effective vaccine that will protect against COVID-19."
