WESTBOROUGH, Mass. — A special vaccine clinic this weekend will give teenagers the opportunity to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

The vaccine clinic is being held Saturday from 8:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. at the DoubleTree hotel in Westborough, located at 5400 Computer Drive.

Appointments can be made by clicking here, but walk-ins are welcome.

Anyone over the age of 16 can register to get the Pfizer vaccine, which is the only COVID-19 vaccine approved for people younger than 18.

Students who are 16 or 17 years old must bring a completed parental consent form with them.

The clinic is a collaboration between Ashland, Boylston, Holliston, Hopkinton, Northborough, Southborough and Westborough, but residents in other communities are also allowed to attend.

People are asked to arrive on time and to not enter the building earlier than 10 minutes before their scheduled appointment time.
