这家诊所面向5至11岁的儿童, but older children and adults can also receive the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine at no charge, 除了流感疫苗.

Clinical trials at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital have demonstrated that the Pfizer vaccine is safe and effective for children as well as adults, 和 medical center has vaccinated thousands of young children since the vaccine was authorized for ages 5 to 11.

“Our community is continuing to push back against the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccination remains the path to beating this virus. We all have to do our part by getting the shot for ourselves, 我们的家庭和我们的社区,伊丽莎白·皮尔斯说, 总统 & 辛辛那提博物馆中心首席执行官. “With a significant portion of our guests falling in that 5-11 age range, we’re excited to partner with Cincinnati Children’s Hospital to protect our young guests and our community.”

As an added incentive and to make the vaccine more accessible to the community, 包括中央军委和南希 & 大卫·沃尔夫大屠杀 & 人类中心 (HHC) are offering free admission for that day to anyone receiving their vaccine at 结合终端 on 12月29日. 另外, both CMC and HHC will offer free museum admission through January 31 to any child who shows proof of COVID vaccination.

“Everyone who gets vaccinated is doing something heroic. 他们在尽自己的一份力量来保护他们的社区. We want to encourage and reward our young superheroes for offering their arm in this fight against COVID-19,皮尔斯补充道。.

Mayor-elect Aftab Pureval will tour the clinic during the event to show his support and to encourage other parents to get their children vaccinated.

苏珊Wade-Murphy, RN, 病人服务助理副总裁, who oversees COVID vaccination clinics at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, said CMC offers a great opportunity to reach children enjoying their winter break who might have been too busy before to get vaccinated.

“Vaccinating them now will ensure they return to school protected while also giving them free entrance to Cincinnati Museum Center,韦德-墨菲说. “虽然我们的重点仍然是孩子, we want to reach anyone who is ready to receive the COVID vaccine – including parents, 祖父母和其他社区成员. Our goal is to reach anyone visiting Cincinnati Museum Center, and we are also conducting outreach to the nearby West End neighborhood.”

Wade-Murphy noted that along with the arrival of cold weather, the flu season has begun. “We are providing both flu and COVID vaccines in one setting, 你可以选择一个或两个,”她说。. “你.S. 疾病控制中心 & Prevention fully approves getting both vaccines at the same time. 它非常安全,效率也很高.”
