INDIANAPOLIS INDIANA (January 8, 2021) — More than 53,000 Hoosiers age 80 or older have scheduled appointments to receive free COVID-19 vaccines as of 4 p.m. Friday, the first day of eligibility for this age group.

Hoosiers can continue to register at https://www.coronavirus.in.gov/vaccine/, by calling 2-1-1 or by contacting one of Indiana’s Area Agencies on Aging for help. A caregiver or loved one also may make an appointment on behalf of an eligible senior.

Individuals may encounter wait times due to a high volume of interest. The registration system was designed to put visitors into a holding queue when volume is high. The Indiana State Department of Health encourages eligible Hoosiers to be patient or to check back later in the day.
