CAVHCS eliminates the age requirement for COVID-19 vaccinations

Central Alabama Veterans Health Care Center has eliminated age restrictions and is now vaccinating all eligible and enrolled Veterans who want to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.

Eligible Veterans can call our call center at 866-601-1079 during normal business hours to schedule a vaccination appointment. Veterans must be enrolled and eligible to receive VA care to receive the vaccine.

The vaccine is administered in two doses for maximum effectiveness; you will receive a second appointment time before leaving the clinic. The second dose of the vaccine is approximately 28 days after the first dose at the same location.

Many Veterans will receive a text message to complete self-scheduling via text for the vaccine. You must be enrolled and eligible for VA health care to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. If you’re not currently receiving health care through VA, find out if you’re eligible and apply now at this link https://www.va.gov/health-care/how-to-apply.
