Message from Dr. Michael Thompson, UNC Charlotte, Public Health Scientist.
Please visit to see the latest information on North Carolina's vaccine distribution plan.
As of January 8, 2021, we are already serving Phase 1 A (frontline health workers/long-term care staff) and Phase 1B Group 1 (those over 75)
If you're a patient in the Atrium Health system:
>Log in to your https://my.atriumhealth.org and select COVID prescren ( right side menu at bottom of choices). {It will make you log in again}
>Complete the screening form and you'll be notified when appointments open for your group (Phase 1B Group 2 for educators over 50)
> When notified, log back in to schedule an appointment*
> See https://atriumhealth.org/about-us/coronavirus/covid-19-vaccine for latest details from Atrium Health
If you're a patient in the Novant Health system:
>Log in to your MyChart via www.MyNovant.org for more information [If in 1A or 1 B Group 1, you will automatically receive a message; unclear how other groups are handled.]
>See https://www.novanthealth.org/home/coronavirus-resources/covid-19-treatment/vaccine.aspx for latest details from Novant*
If you're not a patient of either the Atrium Health or Novant Health systems and live in Mecklenburg County
>You will schedule through the Health Department
>Visit https://www.mecknc.gov/covid-19/pages/vaccine.aspx for latest details.*
The Health Department site has information and links to creating an account to register/schedule online and information about a telephone hotline. [Note- the hotline crashed due to volume on the first day, so the online account might be the faster way]
If you want information on the vaccine options, including those still in phase 3 trials
>Visit https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/different-vaccines.html
*Due to cold chain requirements for both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, the vaccines likely will be administered at select hospitals or select facilities, not necessarily through your primary care provider's office. The Health Department is administering vaccines at Bojangles Coliseum on Independence Blvd.
