CHP Mobile Health Offering Covid Vaccines

GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass. — CHP Mobile Health is now offering the 2025 Covid-19 vaccine (Pfizer) during its mobile health clinics throughout the Berkshires. 
 
Patients are also invited to receive a flu shot at the same time, to ward off both Covid and flu this coming fall-winter.
 
Patients with insurance are asked to bring their insurance card, though no one is denied access to vaccines due to lack of insurance or inability to pay.
 
The MHU team suggests appointments (particularly for children seeking Covid-19 vaccines) but walk-ups are welcome at our locations.
 
The MHU schedule can be found here: chpberkshires.org/mobile; information and appointments, 413.429.2946.
 
Mobile Health clinics are open to anyone, regardless of whether they are a CHP patient.
