THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, JAnuARy 20, 2023 Page 9 Kick off the New Year with an updated COVID-19 booster and $75 gift card Free Family-Friendly Vaccination Clinics Scheduled in Everett, Malden, Revere B OSTON (Jan. 19, 2023) – The Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) has extended its $75 gift card offer through March 31 for Massachusetts residents who get a COVID-19 vaccination or booster at participating “Get Boosted” vaccination clinics in Everett, Malden and Revere. The clinics off er fi rst and second doses of the vaccine as well as the updated bivalent COVID-19 booster, which is approved for everyone ages 6 months and older. Staying up to date on vaccines, including boosters, is the most eff ective way to prevent serious illness from COVID-19. Commonwealth residents who get vaccinated or boosted against COVID-19 at any of the designated clinics can receive a $75 gift card to a local retailer for each dose administered, while supplies last. DPH is working with local partners to make the COVID shots accessible to as many people as possible: In Everett, clinics are currently scheduled on Tuesdays and Saturdays (times vary) at Eliot Family Resource Center, 548 Broadway; and on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Pope John High School, 888 Broadway (rear entrance), through March 25; In Malden, clinics are currently scheduled at the YMCA, 99 Dartmouth St., from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Saturday through March 25; In Revere, clinics are currently scheduled at Women Encouraging Empowerment, 50 Walnut Ave., on Tuesdays Jan. 24 and Jan. 31 from 3 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. To fi nd a clinic off ering the $75 gift card near you, go to Mass. gov/GetBoosted. No ID or proof of health insurance is required. In October 2022, DPH launched the Get Boosted campaign as part of its Vaccine Equity Initiative to increase vaccination rates, with a focus on boosters. Massachusetts is a national leader in COVID-19 vaccination; according to the CDC, 93% of the state’s population age 6 months and older has received at least one dose, compared with 81% nationally. Some 64% of fully vaccinated individuals in Massachusetts have had a booster. “We’d like to see as many people vaccinated as possible, so we are offering these community-based COVID vaccination clinics – including a $75 gift card incentive at select locations – to make it easier for people to protect themselves and those around them,” said Massachusetts Public Health Commissioner Margret Cooke. “These boosters provide the best protection against the Omicron subvariants, which are currently the most prevalent strains of COVID-19 in Massachusetts. The vaccine and boosters are proven to be safe and effective for adults and children. If you’ve been thinking about getting the vaccine, now is the time.” Learn more about the COVID-19 vaccination clinics off ering incentives, and fi nd a clinic near you at Mass.gov/GetBoosted.
