Most “first dose” COVID-19 vaccine appointments have been booked online, but there are still many appointments available, according to a Hamilton County Health Department announcement.

One may book an appointment by calling the appointment call center at 423-209-5399 beginning on Monday, January 25. The call center opens at 8:30 a.m.

If you get a busy signal officials urge you to continue to call. When all appointments are taken, the caller will hear a recording that states all appointments are full.

Health department officials stated that it reserves “several” appointments through the call center for people who do not have access to the internet or need assistance signing up.
