 The vaccination clinic will be held from 4:30 to
6:30 p.m. Wednesday, May 26. Preregistration is required. The clinic
is open to anyone age 12 and older. The clinic will use the Pfizer-BioNTech
vaccine. It’s a two-dose regimen, with the shots spaced about 21
days apart. Once people receive their second shot, they will be
fully immunized about two weeks later.
An appointment is required to participate in the vaccination clinic.
Registration opens at noon today (May 20). To make an appointment,
visit ALMH.org, click on the COVID-19 Vaccination Clinic banner.
For those without internet access, call 217-605-6500. The call will
go to voicemail and someone will call back when an appointment is
available to schedule.
For children receiving the vaccine, a parent or guardian must be
available in person to provide consent and must remain with the
child until post-vaccination monitoring is complete.
Reminders for participating in the vaccination clinic:

the upper arm.
