Jersey City announces it will open 6 coronavirus vaccination sites
Updated Dec 16, 2020;
Jersey City plans to establish six coronavirus vaccination sites across the city, Mayor Steve Fulop and the city Health and Human Services Department said Wednesday morning.
The city has confirmed four locations so far: the Mary McLeod Bethune Life Center, the Joseph Connors Senior Center, James J. Ferris High School and Franklin L. Williams School, said Stacey Flanagan, director of the city’s Health and Human Services Department.
Fulop said the City Council will vote Wednesday night on the emergency resolution to spend $2 million to create the sites. The mayor said the expenditure is necessary since communities have been provide little funding and limited guidance from the state in establishing vaccination locations.
