WEST POINT – West Point Public Health/Keller Army Community Hospital will be providing the FIRST DOSE of the COVID-19 vaccination to the Tier 2 population – which includes ALL eligible Department of Defense beneficiaries ages 16 and older – on May 4th, 6th, and May 20th at the Holleder Center (located on Howze Place, West Point, N.Y.).
DoD beneficiaries include ANY military active, veteran, retiree, and their dependents; ANY DoD employee; ANY person that has a DoD-issued ID.
Tier 2 population can schedule appointments, to receive the FIRST DOSE on either May 4th, 6th, or May 20th, using the COVID Vaccine Online Appointment Tool (COVAX) at https://informatics-stage.health.mil/COVAX/.
Instructions on how to schedule an appointment using COVAX can be found at https://keller.tricare.mil/Health-Services/West-Point-Dept-of-Public-Health/COVID-19-Vaccine-INFO.
If you are DoD-eligible and missed your opportunity to get the COVID-19 vaccinate during the previous Tier or you ‘opted-out’ of receiving the vaccination but changed your mind, you are eligible to receive the vaccination during the Tier 2 sessions.
For those waiting for the SECOND DOSE, Keller will make public notification when we are accepting appointments for the second dose.
As a reminder:
- Face coverings must be worn at all times on West Point.
- Vaccine recipients must present a Uniformed Services ID card or their DoD Beneficiary ID card at their vaccine appointment.
- Vaccine recipients should enter the Stoney Lonesome Road Access Control Point/Gate and follow the traffic signs.
- Parking is available at LOT A at the corner of Stoney Lonesome Road and Howze Place. Direction to the vaccine site will be provided from the parking lot.
