CHARLESTON COUNTY, S.C. (WCSC) - The Charleston County School District is now offering COVID-19 vaccinations to all eligible students.
On Tuesday, the district began the process of converting high school gyms into make-shift Pfizer clinics for any student over the age of 16 with parental consent. Ellen Nitz, director of nursing at CCSD, says each clinic will last a day before moving to another school.
“Principals have sent out a link from MUSC for parents to be able to sign up their kids. That way we have a list of students that we can work off of,” Nitz said, adding that if parents didn’t know about the link they still had the ability to work directly with the district to get their child vaccinated.
