NEW Health Begins Vaccinating Patients Age 75 and Up

Starting today, February 1st, NEW Health will begin vaccinating patients age 75 and older.

At this time NEW Health will be vaccinating individuals who have primary care providers at our health center locations in the North End and Charlestown.

For those patients eligible for Phase 2 vaccination, patient service coordinators will reach out to help schedule an appointment. In the meantime, please limit calls to the health center regarding COVID vaccinations to free up lines for patients with other medical needs.

We do not know when the state will allow us to begin offering the vaccine to anyone other than those who are 75 and older.
