The Maryland Department of Health (MDH) GoVAX Summer Tour continues through the Labor Day holiday. The events continue to bring free mobile vaccine clinics and vaccine outreach to cultural and community events and popular destinations across Maryland.

“Ensuring all Marylanders have convenient and equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines remains a priority as we continue our fight against this pandemic,” said MDH Secretary Dennis R. Schrader. “If you are attending a GoVAX Summer tour event and are still not vaccinated, please take advantage of the opportunity to protect yourself, your family, your friends and your community.”

The tour continues with the following events:

Through a partnership with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, individuals who return to receive their second dose will receive free park entry when they show their CDC vaccination card listing Sandy Point State Park as the place of vaccination. The Pfizer vaccine will be available for individuals ages 12 and older. No appointment is required.
