JOPLIN, Mo. – Residents can now directly schedule their COVID-19 vaccine appointment with Mercy Joplin.

Mercy Joplin will begin its first appointments on Thursday, April 8. This comes as Missouri expands eligibility. Starting Friday, April 9, 2021, all Missouri adults will be eligible for the vaccine.

Mercy Joplin released the following,

“Residents can now directly schedule their COVID-19 vaccine appointment with Mercy Joplin. Getting your appointment is as easy as going online to www.mercy.net/vaccine. When a location has vaccine availability, it will show on the page and be open for scheduling. As appointments fill, those locations will temporarily come off the website. If Joplin is not listed when you check, check back soon; appointments will be added as vaccine supply allows. If vaccine supply exceeds demand, Mercy may accept walk-ins to avoid vaccine waste.

Booster doses will be scheduled while at the clinic to receive your first dose. Mercy has worked through its earlier vaccine registration lists. Anyone who thought they were registered but hasn’t been contacted can now schedule one of these online appointments. For those without internet access, please call 833-364-6777. Residents are asked to bring valid identification to their appointment.”
