Cintas Center opens Thursday as a mass vaccination site

CINCINNATI – Instead of going to the Cintas Center to watch a basketball game, thousands of people from Trieste will go to the arena over the next few days to receive their vaccines against COVID-19.

From 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Thursday through Saturday, the Cintas Center will be the only mass vaccination clinic in Greater Cincinnati, offering 10,000 people the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine. Then, from April 8 to 10, people will be able to get the second dose.

To get both doses, people should make an appointment on the Kroger website here. After answering a handful of questions, the site will ask you for a location, and if you enter the zip code “45207”, the Cintas Center should be available as a vaccination site.

If the Cintas Center is not available after entering this zip code, officials ask you to check back periodically, as 10,000 seats are available.

The clinic does not accept outpatients.
