St. Johns County launches new vaccination pre-registration system

Posted

St. Johns County launched a new COVID-19 vaccination appointment preregistration system on Feb. 22.

Individuals who are interested in receiving the COVID-19 vaccine may now preregister for an appointment by going to https://sjcvaccineappointment.sjcfl.us. Individuals who preregister with the St. Johns County’s vaccination appointment system will receive an automated phone call from (904) 295-3711 when COVID-19 vaccination appointments become available, and will be provided the opportunity to do one of the following:

■ Accept the assigned appointment

■ Decline the assigned appointment

■ Request removal from the registry

■ Ask for a phone call from a vaccine call center operator

Individuals who choose to decline the assigned appointment will remain preregistered and will receive a subsequent phone call with an alternative appointment date and time. The appointment preregistration system will remain open until 6,000 preregistrations are received and will be made available again once new vaccines are received. Applicants must be 65 years of age or older or be a health care provider with direct patient contact to be eligible to preregister for an appointment at this time.

Upon arrival at the vaccination site, appointment holders will be required to provide proof of age or proof of health care employment and proof of Florida residency. The new appointment preregistration system replaces St. Johns County’s previous Eventbrite vaccine registration program and is only for individuals who are receiving their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Call (904) 295-3711 for more information or to request assistance with preregistration.
