To be considered fully vaccinated, employees need to be at least two weeks past the second dose of the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine, and two weeks past the single dose of the Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) vaccine.
Staff may use the PinPoint VaccineCheck web platform to verify their vaccination status. Staff should contact communications@hcpss.org to be sent a unique link for you to complete the process. As of Sept. 27, all previous VaccineCheck links have been disabled. Also, they should alert their supervisor of the change if needed.
Showing your COVID-19 vaccination card is not a requirement of the PinPoint system.
Those who live in Maryland and wish to have a replacement card and should contact their vaccination provider to receive a replacement COVID-19 vaccination card. The Maryland Department of Health also offers online vaccination records through Maryland MyIR.
