Proctor Hosting Community Vaccine Clinic Wednesday

If you have yet to be vaccinated against COVID-19, there is another terrific opportunity Wednesday in Proctor and there are still appointments available.

The Proctor Community Vaccine Clinic will take place Wednesday, April 28, from 11:30 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. at the Proctor Rails Turf Facility. This is located at the Proctor Fair Grounds, 800 N Boundary Avenue.

At this clinic, the Pfizer vaccine will be administered. Because of that, anyone age 16+ can be vaccinated. Anyone who is 16 or 17 years old must be accompanied by a parent, or be living independently and emancipated from their parents.

The Pfizer vaccine requires a second dose 3 weeks after the initial vaccination shot and that follow-up appointment will be scheduled at the same location.  If you cannot make the second appointment, you should get a COVID-19 vaccine at a different vaccine clinic or facility.

This community vaccine clinic is free and insurance is not required, but you do have to pre-register to secure an appointment time. You can click here to register now.
