ROYAL OAK, MI — Beaumont Health has added three new walk-in COVID-19 vaccination sites this week.

Anyone 16 and up can get vaccinated at the Beaumont Service Center, 26901 Beaumont Blvd. in Southfield Wednesday through Friday this week, the health system announced Monday. The clinic will be administering first doses and no appointment is necessary.

“We were so pleased with the community’s response to our first walk-in clinic, so we decided to offer three additional dates," Beaumont Health Chief Operating Officer Carolyn Wilson said. "These clinics are helping us further our goal of vaccinating as many people as possible. We also remain committed to providing a safe and efficient experience for people who get vaccinated."

Beaumont is collaborating with a coalition of 60 of America's top hospitals and health care institutions on a nationwide campaign to encourage adults to get vaccinated for COVID-19, the health system also announced Monday. Led by Cleveland Clinic and Mayo Clinic, the campaign "Get the Vaccine to Save Lives," is designed to reassure the public that vaccines are safe, effective and necessary to achieve herd immunity and return to normal activities, the health system said in a news release.

The health system continues to operate vaccine clinics at Beaumont hospitals in Dearborn and Troy, as well as the Beaumont Service Center in Southfield. However, the walk-in program is currently only available at the Southfield clinic. The clinics have the capability of administering up to 50,000 doses per week, dependent upon the amount of vaccine received and staff available given the stress of this third surge, according to the hospital.
