Omicron Variant Update

Tribal Citizens,

As you may be aware, a new variant of the Novel Coronavirus has developed and has now spread to the United States, with the first cases stateside being found in the last few days. We must stand vigilant in protecting our community.  While the Tribal Council continues to monitor the news on this new variant, I want to implore our people to take the necessary precautions, such as maintaining personal social distance and wearing a mask when appropriate. I also encourage everyone to take advantage of the services provided through the Tribal Health Center, to further protect yourself and your loved ones. 

I strongly encourage everyone who can to take the vaccine and booster, if available. Additionally, if you feel like you are developing symptoms, get tested at a medical facility immediately. 

To make an appointment with a member of the Tunica-Biloxi Tribal Health Center, please call (318) 240-6435.

Sincerely,

Chairman Pierite
