Second Round of School-Based Vaccination Clinics for COVID-19 Vaccines

The Cabell-Huntington Health Department is partnering with Cabell County Schools to offer first and second doses of COVID-19 vaccine at middle schools beginning December 6th. Those that received their first dose of their two-dose series at the previous school-based clinics will be able to receive their second dose at one of the upcoming clinics. Parents and children in need of their first dose are also encouraged to attend as well. As the holiday season is upon us, it is crucial that we protect ourselves and our families from COVID-19. The most effective layer of protection is the vaccine.

These clinics will be held from 3:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. in the cafeteria at the following middle schools:

  • Milton Middle School on Monday, Dec. 6th
  • Barboursville Middle School on Tuesday, Dec. 7th
  • Huntington East Middle School on Wednesday, Dec. 8th
  • Huntington Middle School on Thursday, Dec. 9thVaccine will be available for those aged 5 and older. Parental authorization is required for those under the age of 18. Adult COVID-19 vaccines will also be available for parents who need them. No appointment is needed prior to attending the clinics. The flu vaccine will be available and is recommended for everyone over 6 months of age.

    The pediatric and adult COVID vaccine, as well as the flu vaccine, are available weekly at the COVID-19 Vaccine Center at the Huntington Mall. The COVID-19 Vaccine Center is located at 8 Mall Road in the storefront next to Best Buy and is open Tuesday through Saturday.
