NSC's COVID-19 Vaccine Clinic
"NSC is running its own series of vaccine clinics for immigrants, partnering with the city and Sun-Ray Pharmacies. On Friday (March 12th. 2021), just across the street from the federal mass vaccination site at the Convention Center, they vaccinated more than 200 people with their first doses of the vaccine. They hope to distribute another 700 doses in two more clinics."
At the start of the pandemic, the city lagged in providing translated public health information in real-time, exposing one of the many gaps in access that the coronavirus pandemic has widened. Check out these articles about the vaccination clinics we're hosting geared specifically toward immigrant communities.
