Online COVID-19 vaccination sign-up continues in Allamakee County


VMH offers online sign up for COVID-19 vaccinations ... Veterans Memorial Hospital’s online sign up option for those wishing to get on a waiting list for the COVID-19 vaccine has been working well. When vaccine is available, those on the list will be called to schedule an appointment for the vaccine. Specific directions will be given as to the location of the vaccination clinic as well as appointment time.
