The Hawaii State Department of Health, along with community organizations, are offering COVID-19 vaccinations at mobile clinics across the state Saturday.

The Hawaii State Department of Health has partnered with various community organizations to offer COVID-19 vaccinations over Memorial Day weekend.

Mobile vaccination clinics are planned across the state Saturday — at malls, shopping centers, restaurants, and a beach park.

These are in addition to hundreds of sites statewide already offering vaccinations through Points of Dispensing, pharmacies, and other outreach events.

“Thanks to the support of our community partners, it will be easier than ever to get protected against COVID-19 as people go about their Memorial Day weekend plans,” Health Director Dr. Elizabeth Char said in a news release. “The vaccine will protect Hawaii families and help all of us get back to real life as summer begins.”
