COVID-19 vaccines are becoming more available for people over 65. Each state has its own plan for deciding who they'll vaccinate first, and how residents can get vaccines. Contact your local health department for more information about vaccines in your area. You can also visit CDC.gov for information on vaccine distribution in your state, and for answers to common vaccine questions.

Medicare Part B covers the COVID-19 vaccine, so there's no cost to you. When you go to get your vaccine, make sure to bring your Medicare card, so the vaccine provider can bill Medicare.

Remember: Stopping the COVID-19 pandemic is going to take all the tools in our toolbox. Along with getting vaccinated, it's important to keep washing your hands, wearing a mask, and social distancing.
