Atlantic County Free Flu and COVID-19 Vaccination Clinics Begin September 27

Atlantic County Free Flu and COVID-19 Vaccination Clinics Begin September 27

Atlantic County’s free flu and COVID-19 vaccination clinics will begin Monday, September 27 (https://www.atlantic-county.org/documents/public-health/Flu-COVIDVaccinationClinics2021.pdf). Residents 18 years and older in need of a COVID-19 vaccination will have a choice of the one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine or the two-dose Moderna vaccine. Appointments are not necessary, but face masks are required for entrance to all locations. Residents may receive a flu shot and a COVID-19 vaccination at the same visit, in separate arms.

The Atlantic County Division of Public Health does not have the Pfizer booster shots that have recently been approved by the Centers for Disease Control for those 65 and older, long-term care residents, the immunocompromised, and those at high-risk for exposure due to occupational or institutional settings (teachers, health care workers, etc.) at least six-months after completing their second Pfizer dose.

Please visit covid19.nj.org/finder to find a Pfizer booster shot location or call  the state’s Vaccine Call Center at 1-855-568-0545.
