While no appointments are necessary for first doses, people are encouraged to bring their ID and insurance card to register on site if they have it. If residents prefer, they can still make appointments at http://vaccine.montcopa.org/ to speed up the registration process. Walk-ups are for first doses (Pfizer) or the Johnson & Johnson single-dose vaccine only. Second doses will be scheduled by email or phone if needed.
