In the newest edition of COVID-19 Vaccine Q&A, we answer a few more of your questions, including: When will Arlington get a vaccination to everyone who wants it?, and Is one vaccine better than the other? |
On April 7, Arlington County began sending scheduling notifications to people who have pre-registered as an essential worker in Phase 1c as part of an aggressive vaccination schedule over the next three weeks. Assuming the necessary supply of doses is received on schedule from the Virginia Department of Health (VDH), Arlington will move into Phase 2 -- eligibility for the general public -- the week of April 18.
Everyone who lives or works in Virginia should pre-register so they can be notified when they are eligible for vaccination and vaccine is available.
To pre-register, visit vaccinate.virginia.gov or call 877-VAX-IN-VA (877-829-4682, TTY users call 7-1-1). If you already pre-registered, please ensure your information is accurate and complete.
New variants that causes COVID-19 spread more easily and cause more serious illness. With these new variants in Virginia, it is important to wear a mask correctly and get vaccinated. These prevention measures will keep us safe from the new variants.
