State-run vaccination site at MOA shuts down

By Doug Barrett Jan 3, 2023 | 6:56 AM

Minnesota health officials have closed their COVID-19 vaccination site at the Mall of America. The Minneapolis Star Tribune reports health officials closed the site on Friday evening following a visit from Gov. Tim Walz. The site was the largest vaccination spot in the state. More than 236,000 doses of vaccine were administered there since it opened in February 2021. Walz said the closure shouldn’t be seen as a signal for people to eschew vaccinations. He said people need to keep getting booster shots and respect COVID-19 protocols.
