Arlington began scheduling vaccine appts for ages 16-64 w/med conditions
last Friday.
From an email from the county that I received today:
"Following guidance from VDH, Arlington County on Friday began scheduling residents 16-64 with underlying medical conditions who pre-registered for vaccination appointments, in the approximate order of pre-registration. Currently, there are approximately 20,000 Arlington residents pre-registered in this category.
Conditions that increase the risk of severe illness from COVID-19 can be found on this CDC list. Proof of a high-risk medical condition or disability that increases risk of severe illness from COVID-19 is not needed.
As of this Feb. 26, 87% of residents 65+ who have pre-registered in Arlington have received a notification to schedule a vaccination appointment. These notifications will continue to others over the coming weeks, and every resident who pre-registered as a 65+ individual with Arlington by Feb. 12 will receive an invitation to schedule an appointment by March 12.
Additionally, Clergy/Faith Leaders and Janitorial/Custodial Staff have been added to Phase 1b, according to VDH's guidance.
If you haven't already pre-registered, please do so at Vaccinate Virginia..."
