The VA Bedford Health Care System in Massachusetts will begin offering COVID-19 vaccine shots to all veterans enrolled in VA health care starting later this week.
All veterans enrolled in the program, regardless of age, will be eligible to make an appointment for a first dose of a vaccine starting Thursday.
Those who make an appointment will be automatically scheduled for a second dose in three weeks, the VA said.
Shots will be administered in the auditorium of Edith Nourse Rogers Memorial Veterans Hospital in Bedford.
