The Milwaukee Bucks are offering fans an unforgettable photo opp.
On Saturday, Nov. 13, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the Milwaukee Health Department will host a vaccine clinic in the atrium of Fiserv Forum, and everybody who's vaccinated there will have the opportunity to take a photo with the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy.
The promotion comes as the city makes a new vaccination push for kids age 5 to 11, who are newly eligible for the vaccine.
"In addition to pediatric Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines, the clinic will also offer first, second, and booster doses of Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines for any eligible individual, as well as flu shots available without an appointment," according to a press release. "All children under the age of 18 will require parent or guardian permission to receive the vaccine."
“The Milwaukee Bucks have continued to be valuable partners in our fight against COVID-19, and we appreciate their commitment to vaccinate our city’s children,” said Milwaukee Health Commissioner Kirsten Johnson said in a statement. “Vaccination is the best tool to keep ourselves and our children safe from COVID-19. We hope the opportunity to ‘take a shot’ in the home of the 2021 World Champion Milwaukee Bucks will encourage Milwaukee children and families to get vaccinated.”
The Milwaukee Health Department and Milwaukee Bucks will host a second vaccine clinic on Dec. 4 from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. to administer second doses of the vaccine. Individuals who return to complete their vaccine series at that second clinic will be entered to win one of two available family four packs of tickets for that night's game against the Miami Heat.
