Henrico Schools, Henrico Health District, partners to offer series of COVID-19 vaccination clinics
Table of Contents
A new series of free COVID-19 vaccination clinics in February and March will provide opportunities for children ages 5 or older to be immunized against the virus. Advanced registration is not required. The first clinic will be held Feb. 10 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Pinchbeck Elementary School.
The clinics will provide doses of the two-part vaccine series, as well as boosters to those who completed their initial series at least five months ago. Children 5 to 11 will receive the Pfizer vaccine; the Moderna and Johnson and Johnson vaccines will be available for those who are eligible.
Children and teens under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to receive vaccines. The clinics are being organized by the Richmond and Henrico Health Districts in conjunction with Henrico County Public Schools and its partners that provide after-school programs: the YMCA, the Henrico Education Foundation and the Henrico Police Athletic League, or PAL.
Clinics will be held at sites that host after-school programs, but each event is open to the general public.
