Children as young as age 5 can get the vaccine

A reminder to parents: Any child ages 5 and older is now eligible to be vaccinated. Children and adults can receive the COVID-19 vaccination or booster at any of the five school locations. The child does not need to attend any of these five schools.

All of the clinics are being conducted with C-ASIST. Rapid and PCR COVID-19 tests will also be available at each site. Flu shots will also be offered as will Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 boosters for any adult.

Boosters are now available for any adult 18 or older if it has been at least six months since their second dose of the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine or at least two months since they received a Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

  • At these clinics, Pfizer vaccines will be given to anyone ages 5 or older.
  • Moderna vaccines will only be available as booster shots for adults.
  • Boosters can be a different shot than the vaccine the adult originally received.

Anyone who receives a COVID-19 vaccine or booster at one of these five clinics will be eligible for a $20 gift card.

In early November, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) approved administering the Pfizer vaccine for children as young as age 5.

These clinics are open to the public. For questions or more information about the clinics, contact David Mustonen at MustonD@dearbornschools.org.
