The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, will host a public COVID-19 vaccination clinic Tuesday, April 13.
Recipients will receive Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen COVID-19 vaccine. Because it is a single-dose vaccine, only one appointment is required. Do not make an appointment if you have already received the first dose of another COVID-19 vaccine.
While vaccinations in Tennessee are open to anyone 16 and older, only the Pfizer vaccine is approved for emergency use in people under age 18. The Pfizer vaccine is not available through the university. You must therefore be 18 or older to make an appointment.
The clinic will be by appointment only. To schedule an appointment for the April 13 clinic, go to signupgenius.com/go/13aprpublicsu.
The online signup page includes the required consent form and additional information. Participants are asked to complete the consent form in advance of their appointment and bring the completed form to their appointment. Consent forms will also be available at the clinic.
For information about the clinic location, directions, and parking, carefully read the information available on the signup page. Campus operators can provide additional assistance at 865-974-1000. Campus operators cannot set appointments.
