ISDH WARNS OF VACCINE SCAMS
The Indiana State Department of Health encourages Hoosiers to be cautious for COVID-19 vaccine scams. Payment for the vaccine will never be requested up front or at all. You should also verify the source of any text, email, call, or direct message pertaining to vaccinations before providing any personal information. If you are unsure about a message you have received, contact your physician or reach out to Indiana 211 to get assistance.
