Manassas Vaccine Clinic Changes Schedule For Election Activities

MANASSAS, VA — More than 50 percent of eligible residents in the Prince William Health District are fully vaccinated, according to their vaccine dashboard. The Prince William Health District includes Prince William County and the cities of Manassas and Manassas Park.

On Tuesday, June 8, some clinics in Prince William County will change their schedules due to the primary elections across the area. The Mason and Partners (MAP) clinic at the community center in Manassas Park will be closed on Tuesday, and appointments originally planned for Tuesday have been rescheduled for Thursday, June 10.

In a tweet, the City of Manassas Park said the MAP clinic would accept walk-ins from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Thursday, June 10. The clinic will use the Pfizer vaccine, which has been approved for use in people aged 12 or older.

Vaccinations for people who are homebound will not be affected, the city said. To set up a vaccine appointment for a Manassas Park resident who is homebound, call 703-335-8802.
