Severe weather and shipment delays again force Geisinger to reschedule appointments
DANVILLE, Pa. – Shipment delays caused by nationwide severe weather continue to force COVID-19 vaccine appointments to be rescheduled at Geisinger.
Geisinger is reaching out directly to those individuals whose vaccine appointments need to be rescheduled and providing them a new appointment time. If your appointment is not until next week, your MyGeisinger account may not reflect a change right away. Your account will update and you will be contacted over the next several days. You may also see an updated appointment date and time in your MyGeisinger account prior to receiving a phone call, email or text message.
If your second dose is being rescheduled, be advised that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued updated guidance that it is safe to receive your second dose as many as 42 days after your first. Geisinger is committed to honoring all existing appointments as supplies allow.
