Thousands of vaccination appointments for this week, are currently available at the Camden County Vaccination Center. The vaccination site is operated by the county in partnership with Cooper University Health Care and Jefferson Health-New Jersey and has provided more than 85,000 vaccinations to date.
“If you are still looking for an appointment, now is the time to get vaccinated at the Camden County Vaccination Clinic on the campus of Camden County College. Over the last two weeks, we have watched our capacity grow and our vaccine allocation expand, so we can vaccinate as many people as possible,” said County Commissioner Director Louis Cappelli Jr. “Last week we provided more than 16,000 doses to residents and our hope is to continue this mass vaccination program until we reach herd immunity. This is the only way we can get our county, state and nation back to normal and leave the pandemic in the rearview mirror. In short, get your appointment scheduled today.”
The Camden County Vaccination Clinic is currently open to those with appointments only. Appointments are available for eligible residents at camdencountyvaccine.com or by calling (856) 549-0530 or 1-800-999-9045.
