VA Connecticut Healthcare System will be hosting a walk-in COVID-19 vaccination clinic on Sunday, Feb. 21 at the West Haven campus. Veterans must be enrolled for care with the VA to receive the vaccine.

The Pfizer vaccine will be administered to enrolled veterans on a first-come, first-served basis.
Enrolled veterans should arrive no earlier than 11:45 a.m.
