The state has scheduled a COVID-19 vaccination clinic specifically for individuals who are deaf or have hearing loss, as well as their families and caregivers.
The clinic will be held Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Elliott Health System in Manchester, the Department of Health and Human Services said Monday.
Participants will receive the Pfizer vaccine, with second doses scheduled for June 12. American Sign Language interpreters will be provided.
The state has been setting aside 10% of its vaccine doses to reach vulnerable populations. So far, more than 35,000 people have been vaccinated using that allocation.
