Also, Fishers Health Department’s new public health orders go into effect March 8, and will require approval for any events or gatherings of 50+ people and maintain the mask mandate for ages 5+.

Currently, only Indiana residents can get a vaccine from an Indiana vaccine clinic.

If you need assistance scheduling, please call the Fishers COVID Hotline at 317-595-3211 or call 2-1-1. Family members may schedule on behalf of eligible individuals. There is no charge for the vaccine. All persons receiving the vaccine will need valid ID or other proof of meeting eligibility criteria.

In partnership with the Federal government’s Federal Retail Pharmacy Program, educators now have access to vaccinations through three retail pharmacies.

Teachers
Educators 50+ remain eligible through local health department vaccination sites through ourshot.in.gov or 2-1-1.

At this time, educators younger than 50 years of age must register through the retail pharmacy websites, NOT through the ourshot.in.gov website or 2-1-1.

Individuals with Medical Conditions
Supply of vaccine is limited but will soon be available to those with certain medical conditions that place them more at risk than others of becoming severely ill if infected with COVID-19. You will need to contact your healthcare provider to enter you in the system to sign up for vaccine and to ensure your medications won’t interfere with the vaccine. Initial groups of patients include:

• Active dialysis patients
• Sickle cell disease patients
• Down syndrome
• Post-solid organ transplant
• People who are actively in treatment (chemotherapy, radiation, surgery) for cancer now or in the last three months, or with active primary lung cancer or active hematologic cancers; lymphoma, leukemia and multiple myeloma

If you have international travel plans, you are advised to quarantine, you may need to symptom monitor, and you will need a test to get back in the country.
