COVID-19 Vaccine Updates

COVID-19 Vaccine Notifications

Nevada Regional Medical Center continues to receive COVID-19 vaccines at irregular intervals. As vaccine shipments are received, and appointments become available, information will be posted on this page.

BEGINNING APRIL 9 IN MISSOURI, ANYONE WHO WANTS A COVID-19 VACCINE WILL BE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE ONE.

There are three types of vaccines available in the United States. For more information about the differences, please visit the State of Missouri's website:  https://covidvaccine.mo.gov/residents/.

Regarding Residency

February 15, 2021, the state of Missouri released additional guidance for Missouri vaccinators regarding the residency status of those seeking a COVID-19 vaccine in the state.

Just as other states are prioritizing their own citizens, Missouri’s plan prioritizes the vaccination of Missouri residents first. At the State's instruction, NRMC asks individuals to self-attest to their status in a prioritized population and verify their residency. 

There are certain exceptions, however. If an employer-based vaccination clinic is arranged, and a Missouri employee lives in a neighboring state, vaccination of this person is allowed. 

Infrequently, for the sole purpose of preventing a dose being wasted, it may be necessary to vaccinate a person who is ineligible and has not been determined to have a unique clinical situation that warrants an immediate vaccination. In no case should a vaccinator waste a dose.

Vaccinators found to not be in compliance with Missouri’s vaccination plan may be penalized and risk losing future vaccine allocations.
