The Town of Rockport is expected to receive 100 doses of vaccine each week, and will be offering vaccinations begining the 2nd week in February to the 75+ population and health care workers.

- If you are homebound and not yet on the Rockport Council on Aging’s list of homebound, please call Diane Bertolino at the COA to be added to the list. We will call you to schedule vaccinations over the coming weeks. Please be patient.
When vaccination clinics are scheduled for the eligible public, we will announce it on Code Red and put a URL link for patients to register here. Patients will be required to pre-register. If you need help registering for a clinic that is scheduled, you can all 978-546-5000 ext. 4COVID (426843). When you register for an existing clinic, you may be placed on a waiting list for an existing clinic. However we are not currently keep a waiting list for future clinics.
Given the limited vaccine available in each town, we encourage eligible individuals to schedule their vaccinations at nearby pharmacies and other locations shown on this map: mass.gov website. If you can drive to Danvers or Salem, there are options for vaccine at CVS, Walgreens, and Double Tree Hilton. Supplies are limited, so please be patient as it will take many weeks to vaccinate the entire MA population of eligible people in Phase 1, individuals ages 75+.
