COVID-19 Vaccines
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized three COVID-19 vaccines. VA will have a limited amount of vaccines to start. We've worked with the CDC and other federal partners to develop a phased plan. Our goal is to do the most good for the most people during this time.
Currently, VA is offering COVID-19 vaccine to Veterans already receiving care from the VA, based on CDC and VA risk criteria. If you're eligible to get a vaccine, your VA health care team will contact you.
Veterans who are not enrolled or do not currently receive care at VA can visit VA's Eligibility web page to learn more: Eligibility For VA Health Care | Veterans Affairs
Ralph H. Johnson VAMC COVID-19 Vaccine Information
Week of March 8 COVID-19 vaccination update:
The below chart will be updated weekly as we confirm COVID-19 vaccination supply for the following week.
When a clinic is indicated as “open” that means scheduling lines are open for Veterans ages 65-years-old and older to call and schedule appointments for the next week at that specific outpatient clinic. To schedule, call 843-789-6900. Once vaccine appointments are filled for the week, the chart will show it is “closed.” Vaccination shipments vary from week to week, facilitating the need to close appointments when those doses are accounted for.
The clinics are not open for COVID-19 vaccination walk-ins. The vaccines are administered by appointment only.
Our goal is to distribute vaccines as quickly as we can and as soon as they arrive. Please continue to check our website and social media accounts for updates.
For Veterans who are not currently enrolled in the VA, please call our eligibility office at 843-789-7008 or visit our eligibility website https://www.charleston.va.gov/patients/eligibility.asp
