Germantown Baptist Church vaccination site to reopen

Post Date:08/27/2021 11:24 AM
The City of Germantown, in partnership with the Town of Collierville, will reopen the regional COVID-19 vaccination distribution site at Germantown Baptist Church early this fall. On June 24, the vaccination site closed after nearly four and a half months in operation and more than 68,700 vaccinations administered. Staff from both the City and Town hope to bring to the same level of efficiency and passion when the site reopens this fall.

The City of Memphis has not announced when the site will be operational. This decision will greatly depend on the quantity of vaccinations that Memphis is able to receive from the State of Tennessee. Once a decision regarding an operation schedule has been made, an additional release will be issued. This site will mainly serve as a distribution center for booster doses of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines; however, other dosages may be made available as needed.

While the church is on board with hosting the distribution on their property, staff of the Germantown Baptist Church will not be available to answer any questions regarding the vaccine or distribution. Inquiries regarding scheduling vaccinations should be directed to the City of Memphis by calling (901) 222-SHOT or by visiting covid19.memphistn.gov. Additional information will be provided as it is available. 

In the meantime, if you are interested in volunteering your time and contributing to this incredible cause, visit Volunteer Odyssey’s website and join the Germantown Vaccination Volunteers subgroup. Once you sign up, you will begin to receive information about available shifts once they open.
