Public Health Bringing J&J Vaccine to Local Community Clinics

Liberty, NY – As part of their community outreach, Sullivan County Public Health Services’ COVID-19 vaccination team will be out and about this week offering doses in Callicoon and Monticello, along with the usual spot in Liberty.

“These vaccines are safe, effective and widely available, so unless your doctor tells you otherwise, there’s no reason to wait any longer in protecting yourself against coronavirus,” encourages Public Health Director Nancy McGraw. “Our team is particularly adept at getting people through the vaccination process very quickly and without pain, so we welcome anyone who’d like to get vaccinated!”

Public Health clinics are scheduled as follows:

  • October 6, 2021 - Sullivan County Public Health Services, 50 Community Lane, Liberty - 2-6 p.m. (Pfizer first dose)
  • October 7, 2021 - Delaware Youth Center, 8 Creamery Road, Callicoon - 1-7 p.m. (Janssen single dose)
  • October 12, 2021 - Crawford Public Library, Prince Street, Monticello - 1-4 p.m. (Janssen single dose)

All clinics will accept people over 18. The Pfizer clinics can also serve 12-17-year-olds (parental presence and consent are required). Walk-ins are welcome, but pre-registration is recommended in order to be guaranteed a shot. Register at https://sullivanny.us/Departments/Publichealth/COVIDvaccines/clinics.

Using the same link, those who have already received two Pfizer vaccine doses and are interested in third doses can register for Public Health’s Wednesday morning clinics. Held from 10 a.m.-1 p.m., these clinics are open only to those who are eligible to receive a third dose of the Pfizer vaccine. Eligibility guidelines are listed on the registration page.

The COVID-19 vaccine, including booster doses, is free and widely available statewide at pharmacies, local health departments, clinics, Federally Qualified Health Centers, and other locations across New York State. Visit vaccines.gov or text your zip code to 438829 or call 1-800-232-0233 to find locations near you.

You can use the tool on this website to schedule an appointment at a New York State-run mass vaccination site https://am-i-eligible.covid19vaccine.health.ny.gov. Subject to availability, individuals can walk in at any of the state sites without an appointment and be vaccinated. Appointments are strongly recommended for booster doses.
