Opportunities are available for eligible individuals to sign up for the Standby List for COVID-19 Vaccine (blue box below). Standby List for COVID-19 Vaccine is used to call in people at the end of a clinic day to use remaining doses. More information is available below.

STANDBY LIST FOR COVID-19 VACCINE

When individuals with a scheduled vaccine appointment cancel and are unable to make their appointment, we maintain a list of standby individuals willing to come in on short notice to fill those vacant vaccine appointments.

Individuals on the Standby List for COVID-19 Vaccine when called the day of a clinic must be able to answer NO to the following questions in order to be eligible to receive vaccine from the standby list:

1. 1. Have you been exposed to COVID-19 in the last two weeks?
   2. Are you currently experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19?
   3. Have you received a vaccine in the last two weeks?
   4. Have you ever experienced an allergic reaction to an injectable medication, including another vaccine?

If you answer YES to any of the following questions, it is likely you will be screened out and referred to your primary care provider for vaccine.

When called from the Standby List the day of a clinic, we provide directions to the clinic, a time frame for when they will be called back (generally 1-2 hours before the end of clinic), and disclose what type of vaccine they will be receiving. Additionally, individuals will be asked to bring an ID and instructed to wear a mask while at the clinic.
