Lexington VAMC Information Powerpoint

ALL VA's nationwide are requiring the COVID-19 Vaccination. This mandate has been established by the national VHA Office of Academic Affiliations in conjunction with the CDC, as it has been added to the CDC guidelines web site: https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/adults/rec-vac/hcw.html

Lexington VAMC does not require a booster. The initial dose(s) are the only requirement. Religious and medical exemptions will be accepted

View Exemption Form

Much like the Influenza vaccine, all Health Professions Trainees (HPT) training in a VA facility must be fully vaccinated or have an exemption filed (medical or religious) with the Office of the Designated Education Officer at the VA using the following VA Form 10-263.

If an HPT is not vaccinated or filed an exemption, they cannot come to the VA.

Hepatitis B Vaccine
