COVID-19 vaccine clinics in Walkerville, Pentwater.

COVID-19 vaccine clinics in Walkerville, Pentwater.

District Health Department #10 is offering the COVID-19 vaccine through multiple pop-up vaccine clinics all summer. 

Upcoming local pop-up clinics in June:  

• Friday, June 25, 4-5:30 p.m., Arbre Farms Parking Lot, 6362 N. 192nd Ave., Walkerville.
• Wednesday, June 30, noon to 5 p.m., Pentwater Public School Cafeteria, 600 E. Park St, Pentwater.

You do not need an appointment — just walk in to receive your vaccine. All clinics will have Pfizer for ages 12 and older, and Moderna and Johnson & Johnson for ages 18 and older.  

As of June 21, 2021, a total of 21,812 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine have been administered in Oceana County, and 48.6 percent of residents are fully vaccinated.  

More pop-up vaccine clinics will be announced as they are scheduled. 

According to DHD #10, getting the COVID-19 vaccine is important because:  

• We are still at risk. Although cases are declining overall (thanks to more people getting vaccinated), we continue to see new cases in our counties. There are also new variants of the virus that are not well understood, some more contagious than others. 
• The vaccine is your best defense against the virus. COVID-19 can cause serious, life-threatening complications, and there is no way to predict how the virus will affect you or those around you. Getting fully vaccinated is the best way to build protection against the virus and prevent future illness and death.  
• The vaccine is safe. All COVID-19 vaccines currently available to the public have gone through rigorous FDA testing to ensure that they are safe.
