In an effort to increase the number of people in Indiana County vaccinated against Covid-19, Indiana Regional Medical Center is teaming up with the Indiana Area School District to make the vaccine available to any student in the district 16 years of age or older.
In a letter on the district website, Superintendent Michael Vuckovich said that parents of eligible students need to complete a Covid-19 vaccine consent form and submit it at the first clinic on May 10th at the KCAC. Students would also need to bring their photo ID and their insurance card as well. Parents are also asked to take part in an online survey embedded in the letter on the district’s website, www.iasd.cc.
Students getting vaccinated will be bused to and from the KCAC. Students will be able to sign up for bus times today at the school or by calling the high school main office on Friday. Only students will be able to be bused to the KCAC, and the district anticipates that the total time out of school will be around an hour.
Those singing up for the vaccination will be scheduled for their second dose on June 1st.
