Hoosiers ages 40 and older now eligible for the COVD-19 vaccine

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Indiana residents ages 40 and older are now eligible to receive a free COVID-19 vaccine starting on Monday, the Indiana Department of Health announced on Saturday.

This expansion to include ages 40 to 44 will make the vaccine available for over 400,000 Hoosiers.

Vaccine appointments for the newly eligible population will be available Monday and will extend over the next several weeks to align with vaccine deliveries.

To schedule a vaccine, visit ourshot.in.gov and select a location from one of more than 450 clinics around the state.

Hoosiers who do not have a computer or need assistance scheduling an appointment can call 211 or contact one of Indiana’s Area Agencies on Aging or AARP.

Vaccination clinics that are part of the federal vaccine program, including those at Meijer and Kroger, appear on the clinic map at ourshot.in.gov but are scheduled through those retailers’ platforms, not through the state centralized system.
