When can I get vaccinated?
BEDHD is vaccinating people in group 1A, some people in group 1B, and some people in group 1C. Vaccine priority groups are determined by the CDC and MDHHS guidance. This infographic explains the various phases and priority groups.
COVID-19 Vaccination Interest Form (FOR INDIVIDUALS) NEW
We will not be adding additional appointments before January 29th. At that time we will send an e-mail to eligible individuals. Questions? View our FAQ.
This form is for individuals to indicate their interest in COVID-19 vaccination. It determines the phase/priority group and collects contact information. If you qualify to receive a COVID-19 vaccination at this time, it will provide you with information to schedule an appointment -- if one is available. We will also save your contact information and send you notifications by e-mail when new appointments are added. Appointments fill up extremely quickly -- often within the first hour after the e-mail goes out. Persons who do not yet qualify will be notified using the contact information they provide when vaccination for their group begins.
NOTE: We are using Constant Contact to send out e-mail notifications about appointment availability due to the size of our contact lists. People who use Gmail often find the e-mail lands in their promotions folder. You can add "covid19@bedhd.org" to your contacts to increase the chances of it landing in your main folder. This is also a good strategy for people who are finding our e-mails in their spam or junk mail folders.
When can I get my staff vaccinated?
At this time, our recommendation is that employers advise their staff to each fill out the individual interest form, as we are not able to accommodate employer-specific scheduling at this time. Here is a flyer you can use to send to your staff.
