A batch of 5,000 doses was headed for the El Paso health department, which will be used to vaccinate those who have signed up through the city portal.

In addition to the new doses for the city, another 5,000 doses are also en route to the county and expected to arrive Friday.

ORIGINAL REPORT: EL PASO, Texas â€” The City of El Paso on Thursday unveiled a new Covid-19 vaccination website that it said included an improved registration form and online scheduling system.

"Individuals who have already registered and received a confirmation email advising them they have registered, do not need to register again as their place in line is reserved," the city said in a statement.

City leaders said this updated website will always have the latest details on the current vaccination priority list being followed by the El Paso health department as well as a listing of other potential local vaccine providers.

If you have no insurance, you will still receive the vaccine at no cost," the city statement said.
