Let’s Vaccinate UVA Health This Week
Our goal is to offer all team members an opportunity to take a very important step to protect against becoming sick with COVID-19 – get vaccinated now. As COVID cases rise to even higher levels, Virginia will soon be shifting its vaccination priorities away from Phase 1a (health care workers and people living in assisted-living facilities) to Phase 1b, as announced by Governor Northam last week.
- All team members who have not yet received their first dose of COVID-19 vaccine can schedule or reschedule their appointment for a time this week.
- Managers are being asked to support team members in getting vaccinated during their regular shift or workday.
- Please note: If you already have an appointment for your second dose of vaccine, you cannot reschedule it to an earlier time.
If there is a concern or barrier keeping you from signing up now, please give us an opportunity to support you by emailing CovidVax@hscmail.mcc.virginia.edu.
