According to the governor s office, the site is the ninth permanent community vaccination site in the state, joining Minneapolis, Duluth, Rochester, Bloomington, St. Paul, St. Cloud, Mankato and Oakdale.

Our Community Vaccine Program remains a key component of this life-saving network. The community vaccination sites are getting shots into arms safely and efficiently, and this new site in Lino Lakes will help us reach more Minnesotans 16 years and older.

The ninth permanent community vaccination clinic in Minnesota is opening this week in Lino Lakes, joining permanent clinics located in Minneapolis, Duluth, Rochester, Bloomington, St. Paul, St. Cloud, Mankato and Oakdale.
The COVID-19 vaccine is available at all of the vaccination sites, with the one in Lino Lakes inside the former YMCA building at 7690 Village Dr. The two-dose Pfizer vaccine will be available at the Lino Lakes facility.
All Minnesotans over the age of 16 have been eligible for the vaccine since Mar. 30, though healthcare groups are still prioritizing persons aged 65 and older, essential workers and those with underlying health conditions. That said, there are hundreds of examples of everyday Minnesotans getting vaccinated without much issue.
