What you need to know before your COVID-19 Vaccine Appointment 

How will I get an appointment?

To get notified when it is your turn to make an appointment, please sign up for notifications here: COVID-19 Vaccination Registration Form

Vaccination is by appointment only and dependent on vaccine supply.

What if I have not been sent a link to schedule an appointment at the Health Department? 

The DuPage County Health Department is only one of several sites across DuPage County that has COVID-19 vaccine appointments. Other locations that have sign-up lists or appointment availability can be found on the state of Illinois’ Vaccination Locations webpage: Vaccination Location 

It is recommended to sign-up at all locations near you that have the COVID-19 vaccination available.

I have an appointment for COVID-19 Vaccination at the Health Department’s clinic, what do I bring? 

1. Documentation to show that you are eligible for vaccine as part of a priority group.

Examples of acceptable documents include:

• Personal identification (State ID or driver’s license, US or foreign passport, Consular ID, Temporary Visitor Driver License)
• Employee identification (work identification or badge, paycheck stub, letter from employer)

2. Ticket with QR Code

• After you schedule your appointment, you will get a confirmation email with a QR code included. Please have your ticket available on your phone or print it to bring it with you. 

What else should I know about my appointment?

• To follow physical distancing guidelines, please remain in your car until 5 minutes before your appointment time.
• After vaccination, people need to sit in observation for at least 15 minutes. 
• You will be given either Pfizer or Moderna vaccine. Please keep the vaccination card with the date of your first dose on it.
