and they should preprint a consent form to bring to their appointment.
Participation is limited to persons age 70 or older and advance registration is required for appointments starting at 8 a.m. and ending at 3 p.m. each day. This clinic will have a limit of 300 doses a day. Staff requests that people not arrive more than five minutes before their appointment, but also be sure to be on time.
“I know that many in Ward 5 and around the city have been patiently waiting to be vaccinated, and I look forward to additional sites opening as more doses become available,” Ward 5 Councilman Cedric Crear said. “I am thankful that we can prioritize our senior citizens, and I am grateful that we are able to bring these vital vaccinations into the Historic Westside, which has been greatly impacted by this virus.”
Additional appointments became available after Clark County and the city of Las Vegas partnered to double the amount of dosages allocated for the Doolittle clinic.
“Clark County is proud to partner with the city of Las Vegas in expanding the number of vaccinations that can take place at the Doolittle Senior Center during this week’s vaccination clinic,” said Clark County Commissioner William McCurdy II, whose Commission District D includes the senior center. “This allows us to share resources and deliver COVID-19 vaccines directly to senior citizens living in some of the hardest-hit neighborhoods in our community.”
Those interested in being vaccinated should carefully read the following information before registering.
