COVID-19 Vaccines Available In Alexandria: Week Of May 23 Guide

ALEXANDRIA, VA — Over half of Alexandrians 12 and older have at least one COVID-19 vaccine dose, and appointments continue to be available.

The city has a target of vaccinating 80 percent of Alexandria residents 12 or older, an estimated 110,000. As of Monday, 71,264 people have at least one dose, or 51.8 percent of the population 12 and older. There are 61,034 people fully vaccinated, or 44.4 percent of the population 12 and older. Ages 12 to 15 were added to the city's target after the Pfizer vaccine was authorized for these ages.

The health department has been focusing recent vaccine outreach on people that may face barriers like transportation, technology and language. From May 14 to 20, bilingual health department staff have knocked on doors, primarily in the West End and Arlandria, to offer vaccine appointments.

During the same time period, the health department gave first doses to 944 people and fully vaccinated 2,003 people. This week, the health department is receiving 4,820 doses to be used over several weeks.

In Alexandria, anyone 12 and up can get the Pfizer vaccine, and anyone 18 and up can get the Moderna or Johnson & Johnson vaccines. Minors under age 18 must have parent or guardian authorization to receive a vaccine.
