Schoharie County COVID Vaccination Information

Written By Editor on 1/26/21 | 1/26/21

Please feel free to pass this information along to those who meet the criteria for the clinics.

 

Schoharie County Department of Health is conducting two Vaccine Clinics this week:

 

ESSENTIAL WORKERS (Only those Defined below)Thursday, 1/28 from 3:00 pm – 6:00 pm in the main County Office Building basement.  You MUST make an appointment, as we are NOT permitted to reserve vaccine for specific individuals, and we do not allow walk-in patients.  Please check the county website at https://www4.schohariecounty-ny.gov/ for a registration link on Wednesday, 1/27 at 9:15 am (1/2 of allotted appointments) and 6:00 pm (1/2 of allotted appointments).  We expect appointments to fill up very quickly, so if you receive a message that states no appointments or clinic available, the clinic is already full.  Please continue to be patient as we will continue to schedule clinics as more vaccine is received. If you are unable to register for an appointment at this clinic, please be patient.  Do NOT call Department of Health, Office of Emergency Services, or Office for the Aging (or any other county agency) – as we can do nothing to help you get a vaccine quicker.  You will continue to be notified of upcoming clinics.
