(Gloucester Township, NJ) – Thousands of vaccination appointments for tomorrow, Wednesday, April 7, are currently available at the Camden County Vaccination Center. The vaccination site is operated by the county in partnership with Cooper University Health Care and Jefferson Health-New Jersey and has provided more than 70,500 vaccinations to date.
“If you are eligible to receive vaccination and you have not yet made an appointment, now is your best opportunity to head online or call our hotline and schedule a time to come see our staff,” said County Commissioner Al Dyer. “Since the start of the vaccine rollout we have not had many opportunities to promote vaccine availability with this level of immediacy.
