Vaccination Pop-Up In Fremont TOMORROW, May 13th, At Roxy’s

Seattle Fire Department staff will be giving COVID-19 Vaccinations in the parking lot at Roxy’s on May 13th!

On Thursday, May 13^th, from 10a – 12:30p, the City Of Seattle Fire Department will host a COVID-19 Vaccination Pop-Up in the U-Park lot alongside Roxy’s Diner, and across the street from Fremont Coffee. This will precede similar Pop-Up Vaccination sites in Ballard, along on May 13^th and in West Seattle on May 15^th.

These pop-ups are part of the City Of Seattle’s effort to bring vaccinations directly to Seattle residents and workers through coordinated efforts with small businesses. The SFD will visit high-traffic areas and parks in an attempt to

“Over 73% of eligible Seattlites have begun the vaccination process. This is an incredible achievement, and it speaks to our communities’ commitment to protecting the health and safety of our entire city,” said Mayor Jenny Durkan. “We can’t beat this pandemic unless we work together.”

As an added temptation, the Seattle Office of Economic Development has coordinated with small businesses to ensure their staff have the opportunity to receive a vaccine at these clinics – and to find a reward for those who get shot. In Fremont, the first 50 customers at Fremont Coffee who receive their vaccination on May 13^th in the parking lot at Roxy’s are eligible for a free coffee.

The Seattle Fire Department Mobile Vaccination Team will offer the Moderna and the Johnson & Johnson vaccines at these clinics. They can administer the second dose of the Moderna vaccine if the patient provides proof of vaccination. Patients who receive a first dose of Moderna at this clinic will be scheduled for a second dose at either a Rainier Beach or West Seattle vaccination hub.
