JOHNSON & JOHNSON VACCINE POP UP CLINIC
Have you been waiting for the “One and Done” vaccine?
We are conducting a Pop Up Clinic on June 5th from 10AM – 2PM at the Will County Health Department located at 501 Ella Avenue, Joliet, IL.
You must be 18 or older to receive the Johnson and Johnson COVID-19 vaccine.
VACCINATE YOUR CHILD AGE 12-17!
Will County Health Department’s COVID-19 vaccination sites are now open to children ages 12 to 17 for the two-dose Pfizer vaccine. Previously, only 16 and older could receive the vaccine.
All minors under 18 must have a parent or legal guardian present during their appointment and must remain with the child throughout the entire visit.
Children ages 12-17 may only receive the Pfizer vaccine which has been approved by the FDA and CDC.
Can’t Attend Appointment With Your Child?
If a parent or legal guardian is unable to accompany their child to a clinic run by Will County Health Department, their child can still receive a vaccine if:
- The minor is accompanied by someone over the age of 18 designated by their parent or legal guardian, and
- The minor brings the consent FORM signed by their parent or legal guardian.
Find your Pfizer Vaccine Clinic at our online scheduling portal or below or call 815-774-7386 to schedule an appointment.
