Know Before You Go

GOVERNOR EXPANDS VACCINE ELIGIBILITY TO EDUCATORS, LAW ENFORCEMENT 50+ AND MEDICALLY VULNERABLE
  • Persons under 65 deemed medically vulnerable* by a physician (form required);
  • K-12 school employees 50 years of age and older;
  • Sworn law enforcement officers 50 years of age and older; and
  • Firefighters 50 years of age and older
* Vaccines for this group may only be administered by a physician, advanced practice registered nurse, or licensed pharmacist.

GMR's website should have rejected the OP's request for vaccination when the DOB was entered. Something went wrong there because the OP stated that GMR generated a code for registration, even with the DOB indication under 65. The DOB should have automatically rejected the request to register. Hope GMR fixes this glitch in their system until they are authorized to vaccinate the under 65 group.
