Dear Trumansburg Community,
Please see below opportunity for vaccine for children ages 5-11:
Vaccine Registration Link for Friday November 12th and Saturday November 13th – Tompkins County Health Department
The Tompkins County Health Department, in partnership with Northeast Pediatrics and Wellbeing Pediatrics, will be offering Pfizer vaccination clinics at the Mall vaccination site for children 5-11 years old only.
The Tompkins County Health Department has received a limited amount of COVID-19 vaccine doses for local distribution to children 5-11 years old. TCHD will administer vaccines through a clinic at the Mall site (40 Catherwood Road) on Friday, November 12th and Saturday November 13th. You will automatically be registered for the second dose of the vaccine.
Every child must have a parent or guardian present with them.
In this email is a link to register for an appointment. There will not be enough appointments in Friday and Saturday’s clinics for everyone eligible in this group, you will be sent additional clinic announcements in the coming weeks. Please register as soon as you receive the link below. If you are unable to make an appointment this time you will have other opportunities made available by TCHD and communicated through this same method as more doses become available.

FREE public transportation is available on TCAT buses to and from any vaccination clinic in Tompkins County. To ride free of charge, riders are asked to download, save and/or print notice of appointment confirmation. Riders should then show the verification notice, either in print form or via mobile device, to the TCAT driver when boarding. See TCAT routes, timetables and maps here.
For families of children who have special needs, other medical conditions, or may be uncomfortable at the mass vaccination site, please reach out directly to the child’s healthcare practitioner for a plan to get the child vaccinated.
2-1-1 can serve as an additional resource. Individuals without computer and/or internet access may call 2-1-1 (877-211-8667) during regular business hours 8:30am-5:00pm and a representative can register them over the phone and provide information about transportation options.
Respectfully,
