Dear Resident,

Many of you have questions regarding the COVID-19 immunization. When will it be available? Is it safe? Where can I obtain information? Where can I be vaccinated?

For the latest information on vaccine safety, when vaccinations will become available, and other updates, residents are urged to routinely check the Chester Township website and the NJ Department of Health COVID-19 vaccination website:
