A program designed to assist older Missourians with accessing COVID-19 vaccine launched Wednesday. In partnership with the Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS), Missouri’s Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs) will assist seniors with online vaccination registration, coordinate round trip transportation to and from their vaccination appointments, and conduct reminder calls for seniors’ second doses.
Seniors age 60 and older can seek assistance with the vaccination registration process by calling their local AAAs toll-free hotline.
All Missourians age 65 and older are currently eligible for vaccination. Additionally, those with certain high-risk health factors are also eligible now. More information is available at MOStopsCovid.com/seniors.
