(Indianapolis, IN) - Hoosiers 55 and over can now be vaccinated against COVID-19.

According to the Indiana State Department of Health, appointments by people 55 to 59 can be made at the 400 or so vaccination clinics across the state online at ourshot.in.gov or by calling 211.

Vaccines became available to Indiana residents 60 to 64 last week.  ISDH officials said vaccinations could open even sooner to people younger than 55 now that Johnson & Johnson recently approved a vaccine that requires just one dose and no refrigeration.
