Commonwealth's Vaccination Plan Updated

The Baker Administration made a few annoucements yesterday in regards to the Comonwealth's vaccination plan.

 

A new pre-registration sign-up tool will be rolled out tomorrow, Friday March 11th designed to make it easier to request and book an appointment at one of the seven mass vaccination sites.

 

“In partnership with Google Cloud, our administration has created a process for eligible residents to fill out a form, get notified when theres availability for them to book and then schedule their appointment to get their vaccination," Governor Charlie Baker said. 

 

"Initially, this system is only for the 7 mass vaccination sites but more sites will be added to the pre-registration system in April,” he continued. 

 

The website address is vaxfinder.mass.gov. You can also still use the 2-1-1 number if you do not have internet access or technology issues. 

 

That effort coincides with another trying to get every educator across the Commonwelath vaccinated so in-person instruction can commence this Spring.

 

The Lieutenant Governor indicated four dates have been chosen specifically for educators and school staff in Massachusetts to receive their vaccination. 

 

“Our administration is announcing 4 days are being designated at the state’s 7 mass vaccination sites where appointments will only be offered to K-12 educators, K-12 school staff and childcare workers," Karyn Polito said. "These dates are Saturday March 27th, Saturday April 3rd, Saturday April 10th and Sunday April 11th.”

 

All teachers and school staff must use the new pre-registration tool to book their appointments beginning on Friday. 

 

“Educators looking to sign up at these 7 sites must use the pre-registration system to request an appointment,” Polito indicated.
