We invite you to visit us for two IDPH Community Partner Vaccination Clinics at YWCA Southwestern IL on two Saturdays — November 13 and December 11 from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
Here at YWCA, we know vaccines are effective at helping protect against severe disease and death, including from the variants of the virus that causes COVID currently circulating (e.g. Delta variant) They can keep you from getting and spreading the virus that causes COVID-19. The vaccine will also help keep you from getting seriously ill even if you do catch COVID-19. Getting yourself vaccinated may also protect people around you, particularly people at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
Vaccines are safe, effective, and FREE regardless of health insurance status. Millions of people in the United States have received COVID-19 vaccines under intense safety monitoring. We are ready for the world and our lives to return to normal. Let’s do our part for ourselves, and our community.
AVAILABLE VACCINES & BOOSTERS
Currently, the Pfizer vaccine is for ages 12 years old and up, Moderna vaccine for 16 years and up, and Johnson & Johnson vaccine is 18 years and up. We will be offering all three vaccinations and will also have boosters available for those who have been fully vaccinated. The recommended timeframe for receiving your booster shot is after 6 months of being fully vaccinated.
The CDC reported among vaccinated groups, nearly two thirds were White (60%), 11% were Black, 17% were Hispanic, 6% were Asian, 1% were American Indian or Alaska Native, and <1% were Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander. By bringing these clinics to YWCA, we can help prevent the spread of the Covid-19 Virus.
LET’S ASK QUESTIONS, DO OUR RESEARCH, AND DO OUR PART.
