Fayette County Public Schools has partnered with the city of Lexington, HealthFirst Bluegrass, the Lexington-Fayette County Health Department, and Wild Health to offer the vaccine at district school locations on July 6, 7, and 8.
Second doses will be available at the same locations on July 27, 28, and 29. There is no cost, and each site is open to anyone regardless of school enrollment, attendance, or residence.
Everyone 12 or older is eligible to be vaccinated. If a student is between 12 and 17, a parent/guardian will need to complete an online consent form or be present at the clinic to provide consent.
When registering, please reserve a spot for both the first and second dose. All the clinics will offer the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, which is administered as a shot in the arm as a series of two doses, three weeks apart.
