What should businesses and industries do now?

Individuals can work with their employer on how to best access vaccine.

Employers and industries are encouraged to consider among the following options for employees:

  • Employers may encourage their employees to seek their own individual appointments through an enrolled vaccine provider. It is preferred that people make an appointment with an enrolled vaccine provider within the community they live wherever possible.
    • For a list of enrolled vaccine providers in Ada, Boise, Elmore, and Valley Counties:

  • Employers may establish an agreement with an enrolled vaccine provider for an on-site/mobile vaccine clinic for their employees. CDH has assembled a list of enrolled vaccine providers who can offer scheduled on-site/mobile vaccine clinics. Please note that this list may change. Information will be updated on this page as changes occur. If an employer establishes an agreement for an on-site vaccine clinic for employees, it would not prohibit employees from seeking their own vaccine appointment.


COVID-19 vaccine is only one of the ways to stop the spread of the disease. However, other health and safety measures such as wearing a mask, physical distancing, washing hands frequently, and staying home when sick continue to be important tools.

After Vaccination

Do I need to wear a mask and avoid close contact with others if I have received 2 doses of the vaccine?

In May, 2021, the CDC provided some updated information for persons who are fully vaccinated. If you’ve been fully vaccinated:

  • You can resume activities that you did prior to the pandemic.
  • You can resume activities without wearing a mask or staying 6 feet apart, except where required by federal, state, local, tribal, or territorial laws, rules, and regulations, including local business and workplace guidance.
  • If you travel in the United States, you do not need to get tested before or after travel or self-quarantine after travel.
  • You need to pay close attention to the situation at your international destination before traveling outside the United States.
  • If you’ve been around someone who has COVID-19, you do not need to stay away from others or get tested unless you have symptoms.

While experts learn more about the protection that COVID-19 vaccines provide under real-life conditions, it will be important for everyone to continue using all the tools available to help stop this pandemic. To protect yourself and others, follow these recommendations:
  • Wear a mask over your nose and mouth
  • Stay at least 6 feet away from others
  • Avoid crowds
  • Avoid poorly ventilated spaces
  • Wash your hands often

Together, COVID-19 vaccination and following CDC’s health and safety recommendations will offer the best protection from getting and spreading COVID-19.
