COVID-19 Vaccine Information
The vaccine will be available in 4 phases in Wisconsin. In Milwaukee, we are currently in Phase 1A. Today, the focus is on people who have the highest risk of getting or spreading COVID-19, or are at the highest risk of COVID-19 complications. Below you will find the current estimated phases, and who in our community is apart of each phase.
Phase 1A - Healthcare Personnel; Long term care facilities (personnel and residents)
Phase 1B - Frontline Essential Workers; 75+ years of age
Phase 1C - 65-74 years of age; Other essential workers; Individuals with high-risk medical conditions
Phase 2 - General populations
Therefore, at this time we do not have the COVID-19 vaccine available for patients as we have't reached that phase yet. As soon as it is available, we will be sure to let all patients know. Please check here for updates.
Getting Care
To keep your family as safe and healthy as possible, Sixteenth Street is only seeing patients by appointment. Please follow these IMPORTANT steps:

- Do not bring additional people to your appointments who do not need to be there.
- You will be required to wear a mask while in the clinic.
