Hannibal Regional Offering COVID-19 Vaccines

Missouri Governor Mike Parson announced that the state of Missouri will be moving in to Phase 1B - Tier 2 of Missouri’s COVID-19 Vaccination Plan on Monday, January 18.  Phase 1B - Tier 2 focuses on protecting those who are at increased risk for severe illness, including those aged 65 and older; any adult with cancer; chronic kidney disease; COPD; intellectual and/or developmental disabilities such as Down Syndrome; heart conditions; a weakened immune system due to organ transplant; severe obesity; pregnancy; sickle cell disease; or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Hannibal Regional is pleased to announce that we are ready to start this phase and will be offering COVID-19 vaccines to individuals meeting the criteria.  An appointment will be needed to access the vaccine, walk-ins will not be accepted.  Starting Monday, January 18 individuals meeting the 1B criteria can call 573-629-3570 to schedule an appointment and the vaccination clinic for this group will start on Wednesday, January 20 on the Hannibal campus.  Hannibal Regional is honored to be a designated vaccinator for the region and we look forward to taking this important step in the fight against COVID-19.  While the vaccination clinics are dependent on Hannibal Regional’s current supply of the vaccine, they ae working hard to secure more doses of this vital resource for our region.
