New Trier Vaccine Appointments Still Available Those 16 And Up

NORTHFIELD, IL — Appointments remained available Tuesday afternoon for appointments to receive Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines at New Trier High School's Northfield campus Wednesday.

Timeslots were open between 10 a.m. and 1:45 p.m. for all Illinois residents aged 16 and over in the gymnasium at the 7 Happ Road campus.

Second doses will be scheduled for May 19. Only people who have not yet received a first dose are eligible.

Vaccination appointments for Wednesday's clinic must be booked online.
