A Message From Central Valley Health:
Central Valley will receive Pfizer vaccines this week. Since this is the only vaccine currently licensed for those 16 and older we feel that it is appropriate to target that age group this week. We are planning a Pfizer vaccination clinic on Thursday, March 18 from 3 to 5 at the Jamestown Civic Center. Parents should register their child at the link below for an appointment – the on-line registration includes the parents’ signed consent and would then allow the student to come to the clinic alone without a parent present if desired. Many student are considered essential workers in our community.
1st dose Pfizer COVID vaccination clinic
Thursday, March 18 @ 3:00 – 5:00pm
Jamestown Civic Center Exchequer Room (use NORTH entrance)
