The largest COVID-19 vaccine clinic in Connecticut will open Monday morning.
Pratt & Whitney, in East Hartford, is becoming a massive 10-lane vaccine clinic.
There, the Pfizer vaccine will be administered by the Community Health Center.
Vaccines will only be available by appointment for those going through phase 1a and 1b. From Monday, people aged 75 and over by appointment can be vaccinated.
People 75 and older who have an email address and the ability to schedule an appointment online can schedule it through the online Vaccine Management Management System (VAMS).
They can also call 877-918-2224 to request an appointment. State officials are calling for only people 75 and older to call the number as they expect a high volume of calls.
The drive-thru clinic will be open January 18-22 during the first week of operation. Starting next week, the clinic will open seven days a week, by appointment only.
More information will be provided during an information session on Monday at 10 a.m.
