DETROIT – Looking to get a COVID shot? On Thursday, May 13, the National Kidney Foundation of Michigan (NKFM), Henry Ford Health System, and the Ideal Group are hosting a COVID vaccination clinic from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at Ideal Group, 2600 Junction Ave., Detroit, MI 48209. Parking is available and free. The clinic is open to the public and vaccines are available to anyone 18 years or older. Vaccines are limited so please make an appointment at least 12 hours in advance by visiting http://bit.ly/HFHS-IGclinic. If you prefer to speak to someone in Spanish or don't have internet access, call 947-207-8080 between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. to make an appointment.
The vaccine is free for everyone living in the U.S., regardless of citizenship status. Any information provided will not be used in any way for immigration enforcement. The vaccine type is not confirmed, but will require a second appointment that will be scheduled at the clinic. Spanish-speaking volunteers will also be present at the clinic.
Getting a COVID vaccination prevents someone from getting COVID or from getting a severe COVID infection that would require hospitalization. Also, you cannot get COVID from the vaccine because the vaccine is not made using the live coronavirus that causes COVID. Protecting yourself against COVID also helps to protect your loved ones and others.
"Hosting a COVID-19 Vaccination site for our Ideal employees, their families, and our Southwest Detroit community is the right thing to do. It fits in with what Ideal has been doing for years, keeping people safe and keeping our community moving forward," states Frank Venegas, President and CEO of IDEAL Group. "We are grateful to the National Kidney Foundation of Michigan and Henry Ford Health System for providing the vaccine clinic. Be safe! Sign up today for the vaccine!"
