The clinics will serve patients six months of age and older who haven’t been vaccinated, as well as provide booster doses, according to a joint press release from GCHD and NCW Libraries. They’re walk-in only; no appointments are required, the press release said. People should be ready to wait 15 minutes after receiving the shot.
Health department staff will be using the Moderna vaccine. Booster doses can be administered to all patients regardless of the previous type of vaccine they received, according to the press release.
