Bi-Mart Announces— COVID-19 Vaccine Available in Limited Supply
By Paul Hall on Tuesday, March 16th, 2021 in More Top Stories Northeastern Oregon News
EASTERN OREGON – Bi-Mart Pharmacy has been working with the Oregon and Idaho State Health Departments and has been allocated a limited amount of COVID-19 vaccine for distribution in those states.
While Bi-Mart is gratified to play an important role in the vaccination campaign here in the Northwest, the small amount of vaccine provided at this time will be used very quickly. We expect a more significant shipment of vaccine in the next few weeks at which time many more will be able to be vaccinated. As we await that shipment, we appreciate your patience and understanding.
In preparation, Bi-Mart Pharmacy has developed a new vaccination scheduling portal that will handle all vaccination appointments at our pharmacies. The portal can be found through our website at:

Your Bi-Mart Pharmacy wants all community members to be aware of the following important information and guidelines:
• Vaccinations will be available by APPOINTMENT ONLY through the scheduling portal— NO WALK-IN vaccinations at this time.
• You must meet current eligibility requirements in order to schedule an appointment. To confirm that you meet your state’s eligibility requirement for vaccination, go to one of these links:
Oregon Health Authority
https://getvaccinated.oregon.gov/#/ (Vaccine eligibility tool)
Idaho Department of Health and Welfare
https://healthandwelfare.idaho.gov/covid-19-vaccination (vaccine info page)
If you make an appointment but do not meet current eligibility requirements, your appointment will be canceled.
• Appointments will be limited until more vaccine is available. If you are unable to schedule an appointment, please check back. More appointments will become available as we receive more vaccine.
