Youth Can Attend Upcoming Framingham Coronavirus Vaccine Clinic

FRAMINGHAM, MA — An upcoming free coronavirus vaccine clinic in Framingham will offer shots to people as young as age 12.

The clinic will feature the Moderna, Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer versions of the shots. The Pfizer version has been approved for use in people as young as 12, while the other two are still only for people over age 18. The J&J shot is a single dose, and other two are given in two doses 21 days apart.

Apart from Framingham students, the clinic will be open to parents and guardians, and people who need to get a second dose. Anyone interested in attending can sign up here before Saturday, but appointments aren't necessary.

V-Care, Metrowest Pharmacy and Framingham Public Schools are collaborating to host the free clinic, which will be held at Woodrow Wilson Elementary, 169 Leland St. The clinic will run from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
