As a parent, you want the best for your child, including protecting their health now that classes are back in session. Getting your child vaccinated against COVID-19 can help protect your child from getting COVID-19. Studies show that the vaccine will help keep people from spreading COVID-19 to others, including your child’s classmates and friends. The vaccine can also help keep your child from getting seriously sick even if they do get COVID-19. It is always better to prevent a disease than to treat it after it occurs. Individuals 12 and older can receive the COVID-19 vaccine without an appointment at the following location:
• Ellis Davis Field House, 9191 S. Polk St., Dallas, 75232 between 7:30 a.m. and 4 p.m., Wednesday – Saturday.
Minors must be accompanied by an adult. The vaccine is free to you. Parkland may charge an administration fee to your insurance company or the third party payor (e.g. Medicare, Medicaid, etc.).
Call the Parkland COVID vaccine help line at 214-590-7000 for more information, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday or visit www.parklandhospital.com/covid19vaccines.
