A health care worker fills a syringe with the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine at Connecticut’s largest drive-through vaccination clinic administered by Community Health Center, Inc., a 10-lane clinic which opened January 18 at Pratt & Whitney Runway in East Hartford to vaccinate eligible individuals.
As a home health care worker, Norwalk resident Amelia McClinton lived in fear of infecting her clients with COVID-19. She was looking for vaccination appointments online when her local community health center called her about a day-long clinic meant just for patients like her.
“I wanted to get vaccinated, so I would have kept looking, but this was so easy and convenient,” said McClinton, who is Black. “It takes a big burden off my mind.”
