NORWICH Kelly Steam Magnet Middle School seventh grade student Braden Pink is looking forward to getting the vaccine, as it means dining out, seeing friends more often and eventually not worrying about masks.
“We’ve been stuck for more than a year with COVID, so it’s nice to slowly get back to our normal lives,” Pink said.
On Monday, Norwich Public Schools with United Community Family Services (UCFS) ran a COVID-19 vaccine clinic for 175 Kelly students. Another one for 125 Teacher’s Memorial Global Magnet Middle School students will take place on Tuesday. This is after the CDC approved use of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for people ages 12 to 15 last week.
