NJ Vaccine Call Center – Opened week of Jan 25
    As of January 27, NJ Vaccine Call Center is open and assisting new
     users on the New Jersey Vaccine Scheduling System (NJVSS).

    In the near future, Call Center will assist consumers to look up
     previous registrations, schedule appointments and edit appointments
     at the vaccine sites that use NJVSS. Soon, we are also exploring
     adding registration capabilities for additional Mega Sites.

    Due to limited vaccine supply, availability of appointments is currently
     limited across the State. As appointments become available
     throughout the week, call center representatives will be able to
     support those needing assistance to schedule an appointment.

    For all other non-NJVSS sites and some mega sites, we are guiding
     consumers to the contact information for these sites. Information on
     open vaccination sites is also available on the
     covid19.nj.gov/vaccine website.
