See below for specific category details. The Fairfax Health District includes Fairfax County, the cities of Fairfax and Falls Church, and the towns of Clifton, Herndon and Vienna.

Employees should be prepared to show some form of work-related identification or paystub as the vaccine appointment could be offered by one of our vaccine partners that may require ID.

These are the last seven priority groups of essential workers in Phase 1c as outlined by the Virginia Department of Health. We are now accepting registrations for everyone included in Phase 1c.

We expect to move into Phase 2 by April 18 in accordance with federal and state goals for the COVID-19 vaccination rollout.
