Victoria University (VU, CRICOS Provider No. 00124K, Melbourne; CRICOS Provider No. 02475D, Sydney) welcomed the return of the pop-up vaccination hub at the VU Whitten Oval Community Sports Stadium, 417 Barkly St., West Footscray, which will be open on Oct. 23 and 24 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

University students and individuals aged 12 and over are eligible to get vaccinated against COVID-19 in the designated pop-up vaccination clinic. However, VU will not accept walk-ins so interested parties should book for their slots. 

Key Takeaways:

  • VU Whitten Oval’s second pop-up clinic will once again open on Oct. 23 and 24 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
  • Walk-ins are not entertained, so the clinic and VU encourage everyone to book their vaccination appointment.
  • The return of the pop-up vaccination clinic stems from the great community turnout from the first vaccination efforts weeks ago.

 

Three options are available for booking an appointment: (1) book online at portal.cvms.vic.gov.au; (2) book online through Cirqit Health; or (3) book by calling the Coronavirus Hotline on 1800 675 398 (press 0 for an interpreter).

Individuals coming in for their first-dose vaccination will be having Pfizer vaccines, while those scheduled for their second dose will receive the same vaccine as their first dose.

The return of this pop-up vaccination clinic was pushed because of the excellent community turnout at the VU Whitten Oval’s first clinic three weeks ago when more than 2,000 people visited the university to get vaccinated.

The turnout also included those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, students, and the young and old.

With the university being one of the many partners to run this clinic, VU Whitten Oval’s second pop-up clinic is advantageous for the community members since they have the opportunity to get vaccinated in a familiar and accessible location.
