Tuesday Drive-Thru Vaccines for Second Doses Only, County Says
From Cumberland County:
The Cumberland County Department of Public Health will be giving second doses only of the COVID-19 vaccine during a drive-thru clinic scheduled for Tuesday, Jan. 26, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Both Pfizer and Moderna vaccines will be available and appointments are not needed for second doses.
First and second doses of the Pfizer vaccine and second doses of the Moderna vaccine will be available at clinics scheduled on Wednesday, Jan. 27, and Friday, Jan. 29, at the Crown from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., while supplies last. Individuals seeking second doses will be seen on a first-come, first-served basis or by appointment this week.
The Health Department will receive 975 first doses of Pfizer this week. Because of the limited supply of first doses and already scheduled first-dose appointments for the week, there will be reduced first-come, first-served opportunities on Wednesday and Friday.
The department is offering the coronavirus vaccine to people in Groups 1 and 2, which includes individuals ages 65 and older and all healthcare workers who have in-person patient contact.
Visit the County’s vaccine website for information on how to request an appointment block.
