Cook County is currently in Phase 1b and 1b+ of the State of Illinois Vaccination Plan. This means more people will be able to get vaccinated. People who are eligible under this phase include: 1) residents age 65 and older; 2) Essential workers such as first responders, teachers and school staff, corrections, grocery, and public transit workers.; 3) persons with specific health-complicating conditions or status. For a complete list of those eligible in Phase 1b and 1b+ click here.
We are excited to share the following resources as we move into this new phase:
Cook County has launched a website to help schedule appointments, click here. This site will allow people to schedule a vaccination if appointments are available. This process is expected to take several weeks, we ask for patience from all residents. Appointments will become available as we receive vaccine supply. We have no control over the vaccine supply that we receive.
