Vaccine with a side of Ice Cream on May 22

Vaccinations, such as the one here at The Dalles Readiness Center, earlier this year, have been key to getting the local population past 40 percent vaccinated. Additional efforts, such as the ice-cream social at the Mid-Columbia Senior Center on May 22 are intended to help boost numbers and get us to herd immunity.

From Mid-Columbia Senior Center:

Mid-Columbia Senior Center, in partnership with Age+, is hosting a vaccine event on Saturday, May 22nd from 10 a.m.- 1 p.m. that will feature music and ice cream.

North Central Public Health District (NCPHD) will serve as the vaccinator for this event and they will supply both Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. Vaccinations are free and NCPHD will NOT be asking for personal or medical insurance information. Pre-registration is preferred, but NCPHD will allow walk-ins as well. Call NCPHD at 541.506.2600 to schedule a vaccine.
