Beverly Schools To Host Student Coronavirus Vaccination Clinics

BEVERLY, MA —Beverly Public Schools will host vaccination clinics for students in January.

The district said it has partnered with Cataldo Ambulance Services for clinics on Jan. 7 and a second-dose clinic three weeks later on Jan. 28. Boosters for students 16 and older who were vaccinated more than six months ago are available on Jan. 7.

The clinics will run from 3:30 to 8 p.m. at Beverly Middle School. Families can register for the vaccinations here.

Those getting vaccinated should arrive no more than 10 minutes ahead of their scheduled time and registration must include the parental consent for children and the attestation for adults.

Those getting a vaccination on Jan. 7 will receive an email from Cataldo immediately after their first vaccination to confirm their appointment for the second clinic. The Jan. 28 clinic will be second shots only.

The city on Tuesday distributed its remaining allotment of free state-purchased at-home antigen tests at Lynch Park.

The final city coronavirus testing before Christmas will be held at the Council on Aging on Wednesday. Testing will take place from 4 to 8 p.m. indoors with pre-registration available here.
