All Chesterfield residents who have successfully pre-registered to join the state's COVID-19 vaccination waitlist have begun receiving confirmation notifications by email and phone.
The effort is due, in part, to a new agreement between Chesterfield County Government and the Virginia Department of Health’s Chesterfield Health District to assist the state agency in managing COVID-19 pre-registration information and data.
So, what does this mean for you and your family?
It means that if you pre-registered for the COVID-19 vaccine waitlist via VDH’s, ‘When Can I Get Vaccinated?’ tool, the COVID-19 Vaccine Inquiry Google Form or called the VDH Chesterfield Health District Call Center (804-318-8207), before Wednesday, Feb. 10 at noon, you should have already received a confirmation email or phone call.
If your information was submitted after that time, you should receive a confirmation message from the VDH Chesterfield Health District by Friday, Feb. 19.
This is not a scam! Please check your email inboxes (including your spam folders) for the confirmation email from the VDH Chesterfield Health District; and make sure to listen carefully to all your voice messages on your phone.
Think you pre-registered but did not receive a confirmation email or phone call? Good news: you will also be able to confirm your status (or pre-register again) via the VDH's new online system launching early next week!
But don't forget that it may take weeks or months for the state to contact you about scheduling a vaccination appointment based on phased guidelines and nationwide vaccination supply.
