(KNSI) – All enrolled Veterans of the St. Cloud VA can now schedule COVID-19 vaccination appointments.
Vaccine appointments are available at the St. Cloud VA Medical Center or VA clinics in Alexandria, Brainerd, and Montevideo.
Vaccine supplies remain limited and are provided at centralized locations and times.
“We are offering vaccination appointments to match our projected vaccine supply, said J.D. Anderson, Chief of Pharmacy, and Veterans should schedule an appointment to get a vaccination.”
The St. Cloud VA says wearing masks and social distancing helps reduce the risk of exposure to COVID-19, but those measures are not enough.
The VA says vaccines work with the immune system, so the immune system can fight the virus if a person is exposed.
Health officials say a combination of getting vaccinated and following CDC’s recommendations offer the best protection from COVID-19.
To receive a vaccine at the St. Cloud VA, Veterans must be enrolled and eligible for VA health care benefits.
Schedule your appointment by calling 320-252-1670 and selecting option 8.
