ROCKVILLE CENTRE, NY — Molloy College kicked off the spring semester on Monday by hosting the Mount Sinai South Nassau "Vaxmobile." The free booster clinic helps students and staff comply with the college's COVID-19 vaccine mandate. Pfizer and Moderna shots were given by appointment only. "It's really great for everyone," Dr. James Lentini, President of Molloy College, said in a statement. "The vast majority of our students and employees are very happy that we have created a safe environment with very few cases reported in the fall semester." This marks the first Vaxmobile visit to Molloy. It has been touring the Town of Hempstead, free of charge, since March. "We all need to do our part and getting the vaccine is just another way to get back to normal," Madeline DiDomenica, a junior and a nursing student at Molloy College, said. "Now we can go into our clinic in person and attend classes with our professors for hands-on experience instead of being virtual online."
