Two local school districts — Killeen and Copperas Cove — either have hosted or are hosting coronavirus vaccine clinics in partnership with local hospitals to provide a vaccine to anyone
The city of Nolanville is teaming up with the Texas Emergency Management Division and the Texas National Guard for a free coronavirus vaccine clinic that is open to the public.
For the past month, all residents 16 and older have been eligible to receive the vaccine.
A couple of weeks ago, students at Copperas Cove High School and Crossroads High School in Copperas Cove were afforded the opportunity to receive a vaccine.
Across the state, vaccine providers administer either the Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
Some providers are listed below. Some can be found on the Texas Department of State Health Services website, and others are designated providers through the Federal Retail Pharmacy Program. Availability is dependent on supply.
