Vaccination Clinics to be held at Kona Commons

KONA, HAWAI`I (June 18, 2021) – Walk up, register, and get a COVID-19 vaccination during pop-up clinics being held this summer at Kona Commons Shopping Center. There’s no need for pre-registration, just come by on either of the following dates between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.

• Saturday, June 26
• Saturday, July 24

Bring an identification card and insurance card (if you have one). There is no charge for the vaccine.

Health professionals with West Hawai`i Community Health Center will register, screen, vaccinate and monitor vaccine recipients. Residents 18 years and older may receive a COVID-19 vaccination. Moderna (2 doses, 4 weeks apart) and Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen (1 dose) vaccines will be available. The clinic dates are spread out so participants who choose the Moderna vaccine can receive both their first and second vaccinations at Kona Commons.

“Kona Commons is pleased to partner with the West Hawai`i Community Health Center on this community initiative. Our hope is that the clinics will increase the number of vaccinated residents, moving the state closer to its goal of having 70 percent of the population vaccinated,” said Nancy Sakamoto, general manager of Kona Commons Shopping Center.
