Good Neighbor to host free vaccine clinic in White River Junction

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION — Good Neighbor Health Clinic will offer a free drive-through and walk-up vaccination clinic on Saturday.

The clinic will be from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Oct. 19 at 70 North Main Street in White River Junction.

The event is open to adults age 18 and older, and there will be limited vaccine doses, so the event is “on a first-come, first-served basis,” according to the clinic.

Available vaccines include: flu, high-dose flu for adults over 65, RSV, Shingrix, which protects against shingles; hepatitis A and B; pneumococcal, which protects against bacteria that causes pneumonia, meningitis and sepsis; and Tdap, which protects against tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis, or whooping cough.

Community members also are encouraged to donate shelf-stable, unexpired food items to the clinic’s patient food pantry. Donations can be dropped off at the North Main Street location through Saturday.

Good Neighbor Health Clinic is a nonprofit that provides free medical and dental services to anyone within 30 miles of the clinic who is uninsured or “underinsured.”
