Find Out When, Where & How to Get Your COVID-19 Vaccine
The Minnesota Department of Health launched TODAY a new tool for all Minnesotans. The Minnesota COVID-19 Vaccine Connector is a tool that helps Minnesotans find out when, where, and how to get a COVID-19 vaccine.
After you fill out a simple form, the Vaccine Connector will:
- alert you when you are eligible to receive a vaccine;
- connect you to resources to schedule a vaccine appointment; and
- notify you if there are vaccine opportunities in your area.
Minnesotans age 65+ who sign up with the Vaccine Connector will also be automatically included in the selection process for appointments at state-run community vaccination sites.
Signing up for the Vaccine Connector is easy, safe, and secure — and all Minnesotans should sign up. There will be no cost and no restricted time period for signing up. Health insurance and personal identification forms are not required for signing up. Minnesotans unable to sign up online can have family or friends help them sign up online, or call 833-431-2053 (tollfree) for assistance signing up over the phone. Translation is available by phone in all languages.
While vaccine supply from the federal government is extremely limited and simply does not come close to meeting the demand in Minnesota, this tool is an important step toward connecting all Minnesotans with the vaccine so we can be ready as the supply increases in the coming months. We’ve developed a reliable and stable network of ways Minnesotans can get vaccinated including health care systems, local pharmacies, federally qualified health centers, local hospitals, local public health, and state-run community vaccination sites to meet Minnesotans where they are and make sure everyone will have somewhere to go when it’s their turn.
