West Virginia’s new online hub to register for COVID-19 vaccination went live at 8 a.m. on Monday.

According to Department of Health and Human Resources Secretary Bill Crouch, the online form will require very basic information and also will ask registrants if they have any underlying medical conditions.

The state is urging those over 65, school workers over 50 and first responders who haven’t yet been vaccinated to register.

The registration is open to all residents and is being provided through a link at vaccinate.wv.gov.

Crouch said those who don’t use the internet can call the state’s COVID-19 hotline to register at 1-833-734-0965.
