District 2 Public Health announces Online Registration for COVID-19 Vaccine

District 2 Public Health announces that a website registration link is now operational.  It can be accessed by visiting www.phdistrict2.org.  Due to the high demand for the vaccine, District 2 Public Health asks that everyone be patient as they schedule residents to get vaccinated.  To provide the vaccine in a safe environment, they ask everyone to follow these steps.  Vaccines are for residents who live or work in the counties that comprise District 2.  Vaccines will be given by appointment only and walk-ins will not be accepted.  They will limit the number of people in enclosed spaces by observing recommended social distances to prevent the spread of illness.  Come to your appointment as close to the allotted time as possible to reduce the number of people in the waiting area.  You may be asked to wait outside or in your car if you are too early.  If you have insurance, please bring your card. Insurance will help pay to offset the cost for administering the vaccine.  There will be no cost to anyone to get vaccinated.  You should plan to remain for post-vaccination observation for up to 30-minutes.  Prior to vaccination, a review of product-specific safety information and consent will be required.  Both Moderna and Pfizer vaccines require two-doses and appointments are required for both doses.  Please understand you will receive the vaccine that is available, either Pfizer or Moderna.  A call center number will be available on Monday, January 11, 2021, for those who do not have access to online registration.
