Convention Hall vaccine clinic to close for first doses, walk-in doses for Kaua‘i

LĪHUʻE – Kaua‘i health officials are urging residents who would like to get vaccinated for COVID-
19 to get their first dose before the end of this month.
The Department of Health (DOH) vaccine clinic in Līhuʻe will stop administering vaccine first
doses at the end of April, due to a decline in demand. In May, vaccine first doses will only be available
through hospital and pharmacy clinic locations. The DOH clinic will continue to provide second doses to
those who received first doses this month.
Appointments are available at the DOH clinic April 27 to 29 by filling out the Kauai District Health
Office COVID-19 Vaccine Allocation Survey or visiting Kauai.gov/vaccine. The vaccine manufactured by
Moderna is available at this location.
If you are a resident age 60 or older, or you need English-language assistance, and haven't been
able to schedule your appointment yet, please come to the War Memorial Convention Hall on Tuesday
April 27, Wednesday April 28, or Thursday April 29 between 9 and 11 a.m. and we will help you on-site.
Please make sure to bring a cell phone or access to an email address. After these dates, walk-in
assistance will be discontinued.
