ABERDEEN, S.D.(Press Release) – Avera St. Luke’s will once again host people for walk-in COVID-19 vaccinations during itsclinic Thursday, April 29.

Walk-ins will be welcome from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Scheduled appointments are available. Avera encourages people to self-schedule appointments at avera.org/covid-vaccine.

Vaccination clinics are held inside the Avera Human Performance Center, 815 First Avenue Southeast.

“Avera has worked hard to fine-tune its process and the flow of its vaccination clinics,” said Victoria Lusk, Public Relations and Communications Partner. “Most people are in, vaccinated and out the door in less than a half hour so we’re extremely hopeful that people will take advantage of the walk-in option over their lunch hour.”

Masks are required, as in an Avera facility.

People who get the Pfizer shot on April 29 will receive the second shot in three weeks. Schedulers will ensure you know exactly when, where and what time you will get the second vaccination. Those ages 16 and older are eligible to receive the Pfizer vaccine. Those under 18 need parental or guardian consent.
