The state says Virginians who have already pre-registered will be automatically imported into the new system.
Some internet users reported having trouble accessing the site Tuesday morning.
The health department said in a news release that it was expecting millions of unique visits to the site and anyone who can’t get through immediately should keep trying.
Demand for the COVID-19 vaccine continues to far outstrip supply.
