COVID vaccine clinic for ages 6m to 5 years for Bay Street Pediatrics.
At this time, children 6 months to 5 years old are the only group we are vaccinating.
Both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccine are now authorized and approved for young children. We believe both vaccines are good choices, but we will be only giving the Moderna vaccine for now. We recommend all our patients 6 months and older receive the COVID-19 vaccines, however we are only administering to this age group right at this time.
If you signed up for our Thursday July 14th clinic you are automatically be signed up to receive the second dose on August 11th at the same time.
If you signed up for our Saturday July 16th clinic you are automatically be signed up to receive the 2nd dose on August 13th at the same time.
If for some reason the time does not work for you on the 2nd date please call the office to arrange a different time, but the dates can not be changed.
If you were not able to sign up for these, please know we are planning more in the near future or you can get the vaccine at other vaccine site locations (local health departments, Yale, Stamford Hospital, pharmacies). You may call us in the office to discuss other options as well.
