Free COVID-19 Vaccine Clinics Come to YMCA of the North

First and second Pfizer COVID-19 doses are coming to a Y near you.

by

Governor Walz announced that a series of COVID-19 vaccine clinics will be available across the greater Twin Cities YMCA of the North locations. The Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine will be offered to all Minnesotans age twelve and older through a partnership between the state and the YMCA.

As students head back to school, children ages twelve and older are highly encouraged to get vaccinated to prevent severe illness. 

“Now is a critical time to make sure all of our family members 12 years of age and older are vaccinated to ensure a safe and healthy school year,” Gov. Walz said in a press release.

The goal of this program is to safeguard Minnesotans from the recent surge in COVID-19 cases and to meet Minnesotans where they are, making it easy for families to stay protected in the fight against serious illness. The vaccines are provided in partnership with SpecialLysts, local public health, and MetroTransit mobile vaccine units. 

There is no requirement to show any form of personal identification or medical insurance. American Sign Language and ADA accommodations will also be available. Walk-in appointments are available, or you can make an appointment online.
