Tuskegee , AL — The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention identified and recommended several groups of people who should get a COVID-19 booster. Following this expanded guidance from

CDC, VA can provide booster shots at sites offering Moderna and J&J/Janssen COVID-19 vaccines, as supply and capacity permits. CAVHCS is administering the Moderna and J&J/Janssen

COVID-19 booster shots. Call us at 866-601-1079 to schedule an appointment and our staff will help you find a time that’s convenient for you. Vaccinations at our Community Based Outpatient

Clinics are by appointment only. Appointments are preferred; however, you can walk-in at our designated locations. WALK-IN TIMES AND LOCATIONS: MVAC COVID-19 Vaccination Clinic Tuesdays from

10 a.m. – 2 p.m. (CT) Location: Montgomery VA Clinic (off Chantilly Parkway) 8105 Veterans Way, Montgomery, Alabama. TUSKEGEE CAMPUS COVID-19 VACCINATION CLINIC Wednesdays from 10 a.m. – 2

p.m. (CT) Location: Tuskegee Campus 2400 Hospital Road, Tuskegee Alabama (Building 90) If you choose, you can also receive your booster shot at no cost to you outside of VA. You can locate a

vaccine site at Vaccines.gov - Search for COVID-19 vaccine locations. Make sure to take your CDC COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card when you go! We encourage you to share this information

with your VA health care team. For people who received a Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, booster shots are recommended for those who are 18 AND OLDER AND WHO WERE VACCINATED AT LEAST

TWO MONTHS AGO. VA is also offering the booster to Veterans, their spouses, caregivers, and CHAMPVA recipients under the authority of the SAVE LIVES Act, as supply and capacity permits. The

Save Lives Act authorizes VA to offer vaccines to Veterans not traditionally eligible for VHA care and others, including spouses and caregivers of Veterans. Eligible individuals may choose

which vaccine they receive as a booster dose. Some people may have a preference for the vaccine type they initially received and others may prefer to get a different booster. CDC’S

RECOMMENDATIONS NOW ALLOW FOR THIS MIX-AND-MATCH DOSING FOR BOOSTER SHOTS. If you’re not currently receiving health care through VA, find out if you’re eligible and apply now at this link:
