OREM, Utah, Nov. 5, 2021 (Gephardt Daily) — Nomi Health has opened four community clinics to assist with the vaccination of kids ages 5 through 11 years old in Utah.

“Starting today, eligible residents between the ages of 5 and 11 years old can be brought to one of four community clinics operated by Nomi Health for their first dose of the Pfizer vaccine,” said a news release.

All four locations are open Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. through 6 p.m.

“The CDC has released their recommendation that children between the ages of 5 and 11 years can begin receiving the Pfizer-BioNTech pediatric vaccine,” said Dr. June Steely, Nomi Health Medical Director. “Nomi Health staff have been trained to accommodate pediatric patients, as we extend our track record of keeping Utahans safe and keeping schools, workplaces and communities open.”

All locations are taking walk ups on a first come, first served basis. Currently wait times average one to three minutes. Pre-registration is not necessary but is suggested to ensure a quick experience. Registration is available in both English and Spanish here.
