With the Delta variant on the rise in Connecticut, there are still plenty of opportunities to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
Griffin Health is running clinics at 10 Progress Drive in Shelton (I got my second shot, just walked in off the street) and 727 Rubber Ave. in Naugatuck.
“The Shelton location is open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays, from 7 a.m. to noon on Saturdays, and closed on Sundays. The Naugatuck location is open from 12 to 6 p.m. on weekdays, from 7 a.m. to noon on Saturdays, and closed on Sundays,” according to the Griffin Health vaccination website.
To schedule an appointment call 203 – 433-3394.
If you’re outside the lower Naugatuck Valley, Griffin Health has mobile clinics happening. That’s where you can get a shot and some freebies, such as tickets to Quassy, Beardsley Zoo, gift cards to Dunkin Donuts and more. To learn about the date, location, and freebies, click this link.
The Naugatuck Health District on Bank Street in Seymour hosts vaccine clinics every Friday, according to the NVHD website:
“MODERNA VACCINES AVAILABLE (18+) EVERY FRIDAY 10 – 12pm! NEW CLINIC LOCATION 100 BANK STREET (REAR ENTRANCE OF NVHD BUILDING). WALK-INS WELCOME OR SCHEDULE IN VAMS,” the website screams!
I stole this tidbit from state Rep. Kara Rochelle’s Facebook page: “You can also call CT’s Vaccine Appointment Assist Line from 8am-8pm, seven days a week, to get assistance with finding a convenient vaccine location: 877 – 918-2224.”
Remember that children aged 12 – 15 can receive the Pfizer vaccine only.
