The Butler VA Health Care System will host a walk-in COVID-19 vaccine clinic on Saturday, February 13 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., or while vaccine supplies last, at their 325 New Castle Road campus, Butler. No appointment is necessary. Butler VA is providing the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. This vaccine requires two doses, given approximately 28 days apart at the same location.

To be eligible for the COVID vaccine, Veterans must meet all of the following criteria:

be 65 years or older
be eligible for and enrolled in VA health care
receive health care at a Butler VA facility (including outpatient clinics)
have NOT had any vaccinations in the past 14 days

Veterans who are eligible and plan to attend the clinic at 325 New Castle Road, are advised not to bring anyone into the building unless assistance with mobility or other health issues is required. COVID safety precautions are in effect requiring face coverings and physical distancing (6 feet).
