Boerne to host regional vaccination center COVID-19 on Friday

BOERNE, Texas – The city of Boerne will host a COVID-19 vaccination center on Friday for 500 doses of the Modern vaccine in the Catholic Church of São Pedro Apóstolo.

According to a press release, residents can register to book a vaccination spot on the city of Boerne starting at 9am on Wednesday. A link to the registration forms will be posted on the city website and residents will have the option to switch to the Spanish translation.

No one will be admitted without an appointment and there will be no offer to enroll in the church.

Mayor Tim Handren urged people not to call the church and said that since the registration is only available online, family and friends may need to help those who don’t know about technology.

“If you have parents or grandparents who may need tech help to register, and if you can help them at 9 am, that would be great,” said Handren.
