AHVA Bulletin No. 2022-0614
Dear AHV Neighbors,
Further to our last bulletin on Moderna vaccination events, Bulletin No. 2022-0608 dated June 9, 2022, we are happy to say that we will be conducting another vaccination event on the 16th of July. Zuellig has advised us that we have non-expired stocks of the vaccine in their cold storage, enabling this July 16 vaccination event to be held.
Further, given the DOH’s announcement just yesterday that second boosters can now be administered to immunocompromised children 12-17 years old, this category of individuals will also be included for inoculation on July 16.
The details of the July 16 vaccination event are as follows:
1st and 2nd Doses for General Population
1st Booster for General Population

Please note that the DOH has not yet authorized 2nd booster shots for the general population below the age of 60.
