Rockland to Offer COVID Shots for Kids 5-11; County Loses Another to Coronavirus

November 15, 2021 by Jeff Lewis

Rockland’s Department of Health will be offering the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for children ages 5 to 11 this week in Pomona. That, as the death count in Rockland has inched upwards yet again. An FDA Advisory Committee approved a pediatric version of the vaccine for emergency use earlier this month. Rockland County Executive Ed Day says if you want to get your kid a shot, it’s best to make an appointment…

The county’s first clinic, for kids ages 5-11 only, is being held at the Yeager Health Center, Building A in Pomona Thursday from 3 to 7pm. Next Monday kids 5 and up can get their COVID shots at the MLK Center in Spring Valley. To make an appointment visit the Health Department’s website. You can go to any clinic without an appointment, but you’ll likely have to wait. You can also contact your family pediatrician, health centers, and pharmacies to schedule vaccination appointments.

Governor Kathy Hochul spoke at St. Paul Community Baptist Church in Brooklyn Sunday, and urged New Yorkers to get themselves and family members vaccinated as Thanksgiving approaches…

And, unfortunately, COVID has taken another Rockland life since Wednesday. The total now stands at 998. We’ve got eight hospitalized with coronavirus and 653 active cases.
