COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) -- In response to Colorado's statewide COVID-19 vaccination campaign, three additional COVID-19 community sites were added by Chapel Hills Mall, Pueblo Mall, and Douglas County Fairgrounds. These new sites will help administer additional doses throughout the Southern Colorado area.

All three locations within Southern Colorado will start offering increased capacity of up to 1,000 doses per day beginning Saturday, Nov. 27 and run every weekend from Friday to Sunday, according to a news release. People can schedule their appointment in advance and it's strongly encouraged.

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) says parents and guardians should plan on getting their children vaccinated. Vaccines will help prevent severe illnesses, hospitalizations, and even death -- among those who do become infected. With the holidays around the corner, children who get vaccinated can participate in extracurricular activities, see family and friends, and there will be fewer interruptions to in-person learning.

Standalone clinics like mobile vaccine clinics offer pediatric vaccines for ages five to 11 year-olds. The state updates a list of providers administrating Pfizer pediatric vaccines. In addition, COVID-19 vaccine clinics offer flu vaccines. People can receive the COVID-19 vaccine and a flu vaccine at the same place, on the same day.

CDPHE encourages all Coloradans ages 18 and up to get the COVID-19 booster dose as soon as possible if it's been at least six months since receiving the second Pfizer dose or Moderna. If a person received the Johnson and Johnson vaccine, they have to wait at least two months.
