COVID-19 Vaccine Preregistration Begins on Friday, March 12
TRURO, ENGLAND - DECEMBER 09: A staff nurse at the Royal Cornwall Hospital prepares to administer Covid-19 vaccinations as the hospital began their vaccination programme on December 9, 2020 in Truro, United Kingdom. More than 50 hospitals across England were designated as covid-19 vaccine hubs, the first stage of what will be a lengthy vaccination campaign. NHS staff, over-80s, and care home residents will be among the first to receive the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, which recently received emergency approval from the country's health authorities.

The preregistration process comes as more and more Massachusetts residents are trying and failing to schedule vaccination appointments.
Announced by Governor Charlie Baker this morning, preregistration will open on Friday:
“Beginning March 12th, the Commonwealth’s preregistration system will make it easier to request and schedule an appointment at one of the 7 mass vaccination locations. Eligible people can preregister for a COVID-19 vaccine appointment at mass vaccination locations only. More locations will be added to the system in April.”
Once you’ve preregistered, you’ll receive weekly status updates. You can get more information from Mass.gov here.
