GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. â Members of the menâs transitional housing program at Exodus Place had an opportunity to receive the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine through Cherry Healthâs mobile vaccination unit.
Twenty-five vaccines were administered Tuesday morning, according to a news release Wednesday.
Last week, Cherry Health also offered vaccinations to all of Exodus Placeâs staff, as well as members over the age of 65.
Exodus Place officials say the vaccinations come as a âmassive relief,â since the program suffered two major outbreaks during the pandemic.
