On Tuesday, Walgreens announced it would add the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, now authorized for children as young as 12 years old and adults. The second dose will be administered on June 6, 2021 at Governors State University. The Johnson & Johnson, one-shot vaccine for adults 18 years old and over, will also be offered during the May 15 clinic.
