Since the inception of these Walk-In Clinics two weeks ago, an additional 600 people have been vaccinated, reported the Mayor.

“With Bristol now moving from Red to Orange in terms of the number of infections reported, and the lifting of mask restrictions, we are heading in the right direction but still need to encourage additional vaccinations,” stated Mayor Ellen Zoppo-Sassu. “The more people vaccinated the better. People should check the City website, Mayor’s Office Facebook page, or call the Mayor’s Office at 860-584-6250 for location and times. It is to all of our benefit to encourage our friends and neighbors to get vaccinated as well.”
