City of Reno issued the following announcement on August 30.

The Reno Fire Department is hosting four upcoming COVID-19 vaccination clinics, to help ensure the vaccine is accessible to all in our community.

Community members are invited to receive the COVID-19 vaccine at the following dates, times, and locations:

• Tuesday, August 31, 2021 at Reno Fire Station 11 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. - 7105 Mae Anne Ave. in Reno
• Monday, September 13, 2021 at Peppermill Resort Spa Casino (Capri Ballroom) from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. - 2707 S. Virginia St. in Reno
• Thursday, September 16, 2021 at Evelyn Mount Northeast Community Center from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. - 1301 Valley Rd. in Reno
• Tuesday, September 21, 2021 at Neil Road Recreation Center from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. - 3925 Neil Rd. in Reno

People can receive whichever shot they need at the clinics: first, second or booster. Only people who are immunocompromised can receive a third dose (booster) of the Moderna vaccine at these clinics. They will need to bring proof of vaccination for the first two doses.

Thanks to funding from the federal government, the vaccine is available at no cost to all individuals regardless of immigration or health insurance status. Immunization with a safe and effective COVID-19 vaccine is a critical component of the state and country’s strategy to reduce COVID-19-related illnesses, hospitalizations and deaths.
