Missouri currently is now vaccinating all persons over the age of 16.
First-dose COVID-19 vaccination clinics are scheduled to be held over the next three weeks in four different area communities, and walk-ins will be accepted from 8 to 11:30 a.m. and 1 to 5 p.m. at each of the scheduled locations- one of which is on Thursday, April 8- provided the person wanting the vaccine is eligible and vaccine is available.
According to Fitzgibbon Hospital, there are no pre-qualifications to receive the vaccine, and no appointment is needed. Fitzgibbon Hospital is receiving the Pfizer vaccine as a high-throughput recognized hospital by the State of Missouri.

As many anxiously await their turn to be vaccinated against COVID-19, the state of Missouri recently announced the opening of another tier of eligible individuals effective March 15. That tier is defined as those working in what the state is calling “critical infrastructure,” or those who preserve the essential functions of society.
State officials are quick to note that this next phase will exacerbate the vaccine shortage in some areas, as there will be more eligible individuals added to rosters than there are vaccine doses available. However, Missouri has seen a slight increase in the numbers of doses slated for distribution through the month of March.
