With full-day, full-time, in-person instruction to resume this fall, now is the time for parents of children between the ages of 12 and 17 to schedule a COVID-19 vaccine appointment to allow enough time for that second shot before school starts. And with many New Jersey colleges requiring students to be vaccinated before returning to or visiting campus, the state’s over 1,500 community-based sites, plus popup vaccination sites, have open appointments, including walk-in availability and extended hours
Here are the upcoming Mercer County vaccination clinics in partnership with Capital Health and Penn Medicine Princeton Health. Vaccinations are free and no appointment is necessary. Registration in NJVSS is recommended but not required.
