The new COVID-19 vaccine pre-registration system goes live today. Starting at 9:00 AM, individuals who live or work in St. Clair County can visit the health department’s website to pre-register for a vaccine appointment <HERE>.
Once a person is pre-registered, they will be contacted by email, phone or text when a vaccine appointment becomes available. The pre-registration system is a placeholder only, it does not secure an actual appointment for the COVID-19 vaccine.
The pre-registration process involves creating a user name and password and answering a few questions in the online system. Those who need assistance with the pre-registration process should seek help from a family member or friend who can help navigate the online system. Seniors 65 and older can receive help with the pre-registration process by contacting the Council on Aging at 1-800-297-0099 or by dialing 211.
Dr. Annette Mercatante, Medical Health Officer, stated “We hope the community finds this new pre-registration system helpful. We appreciate everyone’s patience with the process. As more vaccine becomes available, vaccination opportunities will as well, including even more options for our residents.”
