Vaccine Clinic rescheduled for Friday at Berglund Center
COVID-19 Vaccine Clinic Rescheduled due to Inclement Weather
The Roanoke City and Alleghany Health Districts (RCAHD) vaccine clinic scheduled for Thursday, February 18 at the Berglund Center will be rescheduled to Friday, February 19. All citizens with an appointment for the Thursday vaccine clinic should plan to keep your scheduled appointment by arriving instead on Friday, and delay your arrival by one hour. For example: If you have a 1:00pm appointment on Thursday, please arrive at the Berglund Center on Friday at 2:00pm. Stay tuned to our website https://www.vdh.virginia.gov/roanoke/covid-vaccine/, this Facebook page, and local media for any additional guidance.
COVID-19 Vaccine Registration UpdateVaccinate.virginia.gov is live. Anyone who lives and works in Virginia can learn more about pre-registering for a vaccine. This is the new system for all pre-registrations: essential workers and those who qualify by age or medical condition.If you already pre-registered on our RCAHD local health department link, you do not need to do anything since that group has been imported to the state’s registry. To confirm you are pre-registered, visit vaccinate.virginia.gov. (Please note that they are still transferring over names, so you can check back in a day or two if the system doesn’t find you.)Later today, the state will roll out a statewide COVID vaccine hotline that will enable those who live and work in Virginia to pre-register, check their status, and get more information.
