This additional vaccine will help the County move quickly through its existing 1A pre-registration list and allow the County to open Phase 1B appointments very soon.

“With our increased supply of vaccine, we are finally able to expand our clinic locations,” said Dr. Valerie A. Arkoosh, Chair of the Montgomery County Board of Commissioners. “I am extremely pleased to announce we will open two new sites this Friday, April 9, one in Pottstown and one in Lansdale. We also have additional locations in Norristown and King of Prussia coming soon.”

Demand for the vaccine remains high, therefore residents are asked for their patience as the vaccine rollout continues. Appointments will be released in accordance with supply.

Montgomery County is booking appointments for people who qualify for Phase 1A and is registering people for Phase 1B. Appointments are required and are available by reservation only.
