FEELING UNWELL?
Remember, most cases of the flu or Covid-19 will be mild. Unless it is an emergency, if you are experiencing Covid-19 symptoms (see list at left), please stay at home and call your primary care provider.
Before visiting any of our locations, please call ahead whenever possible!
Covid-19 Vaccine Booster Doses
In line with CDC recommendations, booster shots are only available for immunocompromised patients at this time. Eligible patients can get the booster at local pharmacies, or during the course of an already scheduled appointment with your primary care provider. CVMC is not currently making appointments specifically for booster shots.
CVMC is recommending that all other patients monitor CDC.gov and the Vermont Department of Health for updates of when and how booster shots may be available in the fall.
Surgical Masks Required
CVMC requires staff, patients, and visitors to wear surgical masks within our facilities. Don't have a surgical mask? We'll provide one on arrival.

Many routine appointments can be performed using telehealth technologies (video or telephone). Using these technologies reduces traffic in our facilities and helps to slow the spread of Covid-19.
