We are currently vaccinating individuals age 65 and older, as well as essential frontline workers according to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) COVID-19 vaccination plan. We are working to expand our process to ensure all eligible residents can be vaccinated. Vaccine supplies remain limited, so we are asking for continued patience. Click here for more information on the vaccination phases.
Save Your Spot
In order to get the vaccine, you must register! To be notified when you are eligible to make an appointment for a vaccine, visit vaccinatewestmi.com/register/ and click on one provider and complete a COVID-19 vaccination registration. As doses become available, eligible individuals will be contacted by that provider to make an appointment.
Latest Michigan Epidemic Order
On March 2, MDHHS Director Elizabeth Hertel announced a new epidemic order easing COVID-19 restrictions in the state. Restaurants will be allowed to have 50% indoor capacity with an extended curfew of 11 p.m. The Order also increases the limits for private indoor gatherings to 15 people from different households and outdoor gatherings to 300. Read the full Epidemic Order here.
Community Toolkit
We expanded our vaccine communication toolkit to include television screen ads. If your organization or business has a television or display monitor, we developed several slides in English and Spanish with COVID-19 virus and vaccine tips. Click here to access these ads.
