COVID-19 Vaccine Distribution

• If you are not enrolled with VDH to receive the COVID-19 vaccine, please enroll with VDH to become a COVID-19 Vaccinator at your office or clinic. For more information please visit the Virginia Department of Health Healthcare Professionals page.

COVID-19 Vaccine Eligibility

• All individuals in the Fairfax Health District who are 5+ are eligible to receive a vaccine. For information about making an appointment and walk-in options with the Health Department, please see COVID-19 Vaccination Appointment Scheduling.
• Health care providers offering vaccines to private patients must follow eligibility guidelines. 

See the COVID-19 Vaccine Providers Newsletter for the latest information from the Virginia Department of Health.

Volunteer Vaccinators

Volunteer vaccinators are needed to support the continuing COVID-19 vaccination expansion. Eligible health care providers may register to volunteer as a COVID-19 vaccinator through either the newly-established Virginia Volunteer Vaccinator Registry (VVVR) or the Medical Reserve Corps. 

The VVVR is a temporary COVID-19 emergency program administered by VDH and the Virginia Department of Emergency Management established through Virginia House Bill 2333. This program allows non-traditional vaccinators to now be eligible providers once they complete a short training and meet the supervision requirements if they only wish to serve during the COVID-19 response. Learn more about the VVVP and register to volunteer.

Additionally, if you are interested in volunteering with the Medical Reserve Corps as a vaccinator and have an active license as a MD/DO, Physician Assistant, Registered Nurse, Nurse Practitioner, Licensed Practical Nurse, Pharmacist, Dentist, Dental Hygienist, or Veterinarian, we encourage you to register here.
