A number of requests and questions presented deal with canceling or changing Covid Vaccine Appointments. Below you will find the tips manage your appointment(s) from your phone or computer independently.
Post Booking
Ok, you selected a time and made an appointment on our booking platform, or found an appoint on our lookup tool— that’s where this story begins.
Two Emails + a calendar entry
The system will send two emails after confirmation, like so:

Depending on your email platform, a calendar entry may also appear (this example from outlook.com):

I can’t find any emails!
Two possibilities here.
- It may have gone to a spam/junk or other folder in your email account. First, step is a search using the email address of our booking system account: CovidVaccineBookings@islanddrug.com:

The same emails from above appear.
You can also use the same email query to search your calendar:
And, there is the March 26th entry from our example. - If neither of these locate any results, we experienced a technical issue around the system launch (Jan 9-12). So many bookings occurred, our Microsoft Office 365 service capped outbound confirmation emails. Unfortunately, those aren’t recoverable. Please send us a note with any cancellation requests if neither search tricks in #1 work.

This link allows independent management (both modification and cancellation).
