  3. Some people may be eligible for a 3rd dose or a Booster Shot.  Please click on IDPH’s website to get a breakdown of eligibility: IDPH’s Website
  4. To see if you are able to receive the COVID19 vaccine, please take a look at this screening tool.
  5. If you are worried about the safety of vaccines, please visit the CDC for RELIABLE INFORMATION.

PLEASE READ BEFORE COMING FOR YOUR VACCINATION
  1. If you have an appointment, please arrive no more than 5-10 minutes before your appointment.
  2. Please wear short sleeves.  This will make it easier and quicker for people to get through the vaccine station.  
  3. If this is your 2nd dose or booster, bring your vaccine card back with you.  If you have lost your vaccination card, please call the provider that issued you the vaccine card.  
  4. If you answer “Yes” to being pregnant, you must have a doctor’s note saying you can receive the vaccine at the VCHD location.  Please check with other providers before you arrive.  You no longer need a doctor’s note if you are breastfeeding.
  5. Please see Screening Information before you come to get your vaccine to make sure you are eligible to receive the vaccine.
  6. You will be asked to remain in an observation area for 15-30 minutes post vaccination.
