Vaccination Update 2/19/21

The pre-registration process to receive COVID-19 vaccine in Mattapoisett is being updated to reflect the state’s latest announcement regarding prioritization of vaccine allocation.

In Mattapoisett, the last day to submit registration forms to the Police Department as outlined in our current pre-registration process is Wednesday, February 24th , until 2pm. All forms submitted will be kept on file at the public health nursing office. Eligible residents will then be notified if vaccine becomes available in the town of Mattapoisett.

 

Please note: Residents who have received their first dose of COVID-19 vaccine through the Public Health Nursing Office are assured a second dose and will be notified accordingly. The established second-dose vaccine schedule will be followed. All eligible residents are encouraged to seek an appointment at a nearby vaccination location.

 

For the most current information, please visit the Massachusetts Department of Public Health website at https://www.mass.gov/covid-19-vaccine. Vaccination of priority groups will be ongoing throughout the Commonwealth as more vaccine becomes available. Per the guidance of the state and due to extremely limited access to COVID-19 vaccine, the Public Health Nursing Office will focus efforts on vaccinating residents and staff of congregate senior housing as well as Mattapoisett’s homebound population. If you know of a Mattapoisett resident who needs assistance or if you are homebound, you may leave a message with the Public Health Nurse at 508- 758-4118.

 

Information regarding the vaccination schedule for senior housing and for homebound residents will be determined as more information becomes available. The Mattapoisett Board of Health urges all residents to seek local and state guidance regarding COVID-19 vaccine updates. Attached, please find the most recent fact sheets regarding COVID-19 vaccines.
