Both J & J and Pfizer vaccines to be offered

GovState G

(University Park, Ill.)  — Governors State University and South Suburban Mayors and Managers Association are partnering with Walgreens to host a COVID-19 vaccine clinic at the university on Saturday, May 15, 2021 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

On Tuesday, Walgreens announced it would add the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, now authorized for children as young as 12 years old and adults. The second dose will be administered on June 6, 2021 at Governors State University.

The Johnson & Johnson, one-shot vaccine for adults 18 years old and over, will also be offered during the May 15 clinic. In March, more than 1,500 educators and others were vaccinated with the Johnson & Johnson vaccine during a clinic co-hosted by Governors State, Walgreens and the Illinois Association of School Administrators’ South Cook County district.

The May 15 clinic is open to public. Registration is preferred, however walk-ins will be vaccinated, as well. Click here to register or scan the QR Code (below) for the May 15 clinic.

To volunteer for the event, contact universityevents@govst.edu by May 13, 2021.
