On Saturday, residents of Wisconsin‘s City of Racine can be vaccinated nearer to their homes.
Racine city, AMI Health, and Health Care Network are working together this weekend to provide the COVID-19 vaccine in a pop-up mobile clinic.
The vehicle is the city’s Mobile Voting Unit, which looks like an RV and is branded with the city’s logo. It was bought by the city last year through funds donated by the Center for Tech and Civic Life which is a non-profit organization that has received more than $300 million from Facebook Founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan.
This mobile clinic RV is scheduled to be located at the following intersections for one hour at the times listed below:
- 11 a.m.-noon: 16th Street and Packard Avenue
- Noon-1 p.m.: 16th Street and Austin Avenue
- 1-2 p.m.: Slauson and Taylor avenues
- 2-3 p.m.: Woodland and Bluff avenues
- 3 p.m.-close: Dalamere Avenue and 10th Street
Prior to the weekend, residents living in these communities will be getting brochures on their doorsteps. Canvassers, together with Racine Common Council President John Tate II, will be knocking on the doors of homes on Saturday to urge residents to be vaccinated and to answer any questions.
