St. Francis Offers Free COVID Vaccine Clinic Days

St. Francis Medical Center is offering free COVID vaccine clinics every Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The Moderna vaccine is administered at St. Francis. Here patients can receive a primary dose, which is a 2-dose series, an additional dose for immune-compromised individuals, or a booster dose.

The Moderna vaccine booster is recommended for individuals ages 65 years and older; or individuals ages 18 and older who live in long-term care settings; or individuals ages18 and older who have underlying medical conditions; or individuals ages 18 and older who work in healthcare or other high-risk settings AND who completed the two-shot primary series of the vaccine at least 6 months ago.

A heterologous (or “mix and match”) booster dose is also approved, allowing individuals to receive the booster of their choice, regardless of which vaccine they received for their initial course. St. Francis can administer the Moderna booster to individuals who previously received the Pfizer vaccine (after 6 months) or Johnson & Johnson vaccine (after 2 months).

The additional dose of the Moderna vaccine for immune-compromised individuals can be administered 4 weeks after the second dose.

Patients of the St. Francis COVID Vaccine Clinic must be 18 years of age and older.

Appointments are highly encouraged and can be made through the New Jersey Vaccine Scheduling System at https://covidvaccine.nj.gov/en-US/
