COVID-19 Vaccine Provider Locations & Age Groups

February 05, 2021
Ohio is slowly moving forward on its categories for vaccination. In the meantime, medical experts are suggesting people double-mask when they go out to be safe. If you can find a N95 mask, an N95 or KF94 wear that and use a surgical blue mask over it. 

If not, double-mask with a surgical mask and a cloth mask. The surgical mask gives you good, certified filtration, while the cloth mask on top helps improve the fit. Research shows this can achieve greater than 90 percent filtration.

Meanwhile, the governor recently announced that Ohio will be receiving more vaccine each weak. At this time, Ohioans age 65 and older and those with severe congenital or developmental disorders are eligible to be vaccinated.

Weekly age groupings, outlined below, start with the most vulnerable to allow for a smooth opening to Phase 1B, gradually adding more eligible Ohioans each week. Please visit the COVID-19 Vaccination Program webpage for more information on Ohio’s Phased Approach at vaccine distribution.

Phase 1B of vaccine distribution will include the following audiences. When a new age group begins, vaccinations may not be complete for the previous age group. It will take a number of weeks to distribute all of the vaccine given the limited doses available. Someone in the first age group, for example, will still be able to be vaccinated once the next group begins.
  • The week of Jan. 19: Ohioans 80 years of age and older.
  • The week of Jan. 25: Ohioans 75 years of age and older; those with severe congenital or developmental disorders.
  • The week of Feb. 1: Ohioans 70 years of age and older; employees of K-12 schools that wish to remain or return to in-person or hybrid models.
  • The week of Feb. 8: Ohioans 65 years of age and older.
While each provider manages its own schedules and appointments, all can call 2-1-1 from 8 am to 4 pm M-F to find information. The state tool is also intended help make site information easily accessible to Ohioans. It is important to call or visit the website of a provider in advance to ensure the provider is conducting vaccinations at this time and to make arrangements to be vaccinated. Websites, contact information, and addresses listed are submitted by vaccine providers.
