UPDATE: 7 P.M.

When COVID vaccine registration opened at 5pm on Wednesday the 10th, many hundreds of islanders logged on and searched by their zip code for available clinics – just as they were advised to do in our instructional video. Unfortunately, the zip code search feature was not working.

While most applicants were able to locate the island clinics by scrolling down or searching by island name, we extend our sincere apologies to those who were not. Clearly the registration process remains frustrating. We will be working closely with the registration technology team at the WA State Department of Health to ensure future roll-outs are smoother.

Almost 2,000 islanders were able to secure appointments. In order to sign up, or to monitor for future registration windows, please visit: https://www.sanjuanco.com/1737/COVID-Vaccine-Info


 

UPDATE: 6:15 p.m.

Reservation slots on San Juan are now closed. There is space on Orcas and Lopez.


As of 5:47PM on 2/15, there are still slots available at the vaccine clinics on each island.

We are working with State DOH to understand why the zip code feature was not functioning. For those who have not scheduled an appointment yet, please scroll down through all clinics, or search by “Orcas” “Lopez” or “San Juan”

Thanks islanders. We know this is frustrating.
