Massachusetts Vax Bus Arrives In Southbridge & Worcester
Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker has announced additional vaccination opportunities for Massachusetts residents via the newly created mobile vaccination unit. The “VaxBus” is expected to increase access to Covid-19 vaccines across the state.
The Commonwealth is hosting community-based mobile vaccination clinics in 23 municipalities across Massachusetts. The municipalities include those that are part of the Vaccine Equity Initiative and those with lower-than-average vaccination rates. The mobile clinics will be in easy to access locations to reach individuals that may have trouble getting vaccinated in a traditional setting.
Members of the public can show up to be vaccinated without an appointment. The VaxBus will offer the two-dose Pfizer vaccine for ages 12 and up and the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine for ages 18 and up. The bus will return to these communities to provide the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine.
