COVID-19 is a highly contagious respiratory illness caused by a virus. Most cases of COVID-19 are mild to moderate, like the common cold. But it can be more severe in older adults and people with chronic health conditions.
The West Windsor Department of Health is working with many other state, federal, and local agencies to quickly and equitably distribute COVID-19 vaccine to all New Jersey communities. It is our goal make safe and effective COVID-19 vaccination available to all who live, work, and/or are educated in West Windsor, Robbinsville Township and Hightstown Borough.
