COVID-19 Vaccine
UPDATE: MAY 2021
We are offering first-dose appointments for the COVID-19 vaccines to patients age 12 and older who are eligible under the state’s vaccine distribution plan. Beginning this week, Mass General Brigham patients can schedule a vaccine appointment on our new scheduling website. Please note, any patient under 18 needs a parent or guardian’s consent which can be found HERE. For Cooley Dickinson patients, vaccine appointments can be scheduled through their CDMG primary or specialty care office. If you are a patient of Cooley Dickinson/Mass General Brigham, you can call 413-582-2001 to schedule your COVID-19 vaccine appointment.
If you are eligible to receive the vaccine, according to state guidance, vaccination is also available through many local pharmacies and designated state vaccination sites. Please visit Mass.gov or directly at VaxFinder.mass.gov for more information or call 2-1-1.
