Vaccination Clinic Scheduled at North Northfield Church
North Northfield United Methodist Church, located at Sanders and Dundee in Northbrook, will host a vaccination clinic open to the public on Sept. 14 and Oct. 5 from 4 to 7 p.m.
A vendor for the Illinois Department of Public Health will administer the Pfizer vaccine for COVID-19. Some doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine will also be available.
Although walk-ins will be accepted, to reduce wait times it is strongly recommended that an online appointment be made. People receiving the vaccination need to be able to stop by on both Sept. 14 and Oct. 5 as the Pfizer vaccine requires two doses. Please also plan to stay for an observation period of 15 minutes after receiving the vaccination.
