St. Luke’s Lehighton Campus currently has 2,000 vaccines available for the clinics, including Moderna and Pfizer. Walk-ins are first dose only, with vaccine booster appointments scheduled before you leave. Vaccines are available first come, first serve, as quantities are limited.

“Our goal this week is to get as many vaccines into arms as possible throughout the county,” John Nespoli, President Lehighton and Carbon Campuses. “The vaccination process is as easy as possible for the community and no appointment necessary!”

“It’s a great asset to the community,” Rocky Ahner, Carbon County Commissioner. “St. Luke’s has been a great health care partner in Carbon County. This is yet another example of that.”

If you have any questions about the vaccine as it relates to your medical condition or situation, please speak with your health care provider before scheduling a vaccine appointment.
