North Florida/South Georgia Veterans Health System COVID-19 Vaccine Operations - April 16, 2021

VA has temporarily paused the administration of the Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) COVID-19 vaccine based on CDC and FDA recommendations. We are still offering both the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines. Those scheduled for Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) will be rescheduled to either receive the Moderna or Pfizer vaccines. We will provide additional information as we learn more. 

Individuals eligible under the SAVES LIVES Act who would like to receive a COVID-19 vaccine from VA should go to www.va.gov/covid-19-vaccine to sign up. Once registered, those eligible will have access to schedule an appointment by calling 352-548-6000 ext. 103755 or attend a no appointment needed clinic. 

Enrolled NF/SGVHS Veterans can opt to receive the vaccine at one of our sites of care by calling to schedule an appointment at 352-548-6000 ext. 103755 or attend a no appointment needed clinic. Appointments at our community-based outpatient clinics remain limited.
