• Before pre-registering for the COVID-19 vaccine, check with your personal physician to make sure you are a candidate to receive the vaccine.
All entries will be added to the database of those who want the vaccination. People aged 65 and older are currently eligible to receive the free vaccine. If you are under 65, you will be entered into a separate database to be used once the vaccine is made available to you. If one person in a couple is under 65, it is preferable to register together for the later date or to register separately if the older person needs to be vaccinated sooner.
Each time the GRF is advised of a vaccine allocation and another clinic can be held, the system will randomly select names of people to receive vaccinations. Those people will then be contacted with an assigned appointment time and day.
People who called to register will be notified by phone; those who registered online will be emailed.
Because there was only 12 hours’ notice prior to the last vaccine clinic and that trend is expected to continue, people won’t be able to select preferred times and dates for vaccines. Residents must show up for appointments assigned to them. Bring the COVID-19 registration packet that was delivered Jan. 16-17.
Of importance:
• Multiple submissions from the same person in an effort to improve his or her chances of being chosen will be automatically removed from registration.
• A family member may register a resident who is unable to do so.
• Residents must be available to take the second dose three weeks after the first dose.
• Couples will be scheduled together by completing the one form with both names.
• If you are unable to complete registration by email or telephone, contact Cindy Tostado at (562) 431-6586, ext. 317, for a copy of the form.
This pre-registration form places residents on a registration list only. You will be contacted once an appointment date and time have been assigned for you.
The GRF intends to conduct vaccination clinics until every resident who wants to be vaccinated has received the vaccine. Being the first to complete the form, whether online or on the phone, has absolutely no bearing on which clinic you will attend.
The process is completely random, and everyone who wants the vaccine will get it at some point.
