The State of Nevada has set an aggressive schedule to expand availability of the COVID-19 vaccine to all Nevadans. Please be advised that with the expanded access of the vaccine, eligibility must be balanced with availability and demand. The majority of vaccine sites require an appointment, so please schedule accordingly.

The updated groups are eligible as follows:

• Wednesday, March 17:  Faculty and staff returning to campus for the summer and fall.
• Monday, March 22:  Retail pharmacies began offering vaccinations to those 16 years and older with underlying medical conditions.
• Monday, April 5:  All Nevadans 16 years of age or older are eligible.  Specific locations may be restricted for 18 years of age or above, please check with the location in advance.

Additional information on underlying medical conditions is available from the CDC.

Students, faculty, staff, and their families (18 years of age or older) can register at the Nevada System of Higher Education’s UNLV location.  Registration dates for students and/or family members will be open on or about April 1 or 2. A few things to note in registering at the UNLV location:
