Erie VAMC, including its five community-based outpatient clinics (CBOCs), continues to distribute the COVID-19 Moderna vaccine to high-risk Veterans based on CDC guidance. This vaccine requires two doses, given approximately 28 days apart at the same VA clinic location. At this time, vaccine distribution is by appointment only due to limited supply.
Erie VAMC is currently scheduling COVID-19 vaccine appointments for eligible veterans who are 75 and older and receive their VA health care at the Erie VAMC or one of our community-based outpatient clinics located in Ashtabula, Crawford, McKean, Venango, and Warren counties.
Veterans who are eligible based on the criteria above should call 814-868-8661, press 2 to schedule an appointment to receive the vaccine.
In addition, all veterans are encouraged to use the Keep Me Informed online tool to stay updated on current COVID-19 vaccine information. During sign up, individuals will be asked about their vaccine plans. Erie VAMC may use this information to determine when to contact the individual, once they become eligible to receive the vaccine.
