New York City's Test and Trace Corps are hosting more than a dozen Halloween events this weekend in an effort to bring vaccines to more families.
Vaccine mobile units will be set up at 17 different places to make it easier for parents and young people to get vaccinated while enjoying the holiday.
"Vax-O-Ween" will even put some vaccine set-ups at areas known for children to trick-or-treat, at pumpkin patches and movies under the stars events.
They will be in front of the 73rd Precinct in Brownsville until 6 p.m. today and at the John Hancock Playground in Bed-Stuy until 8 p.m.
Both sites are offering the Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson vaccines.
No appointments are necessary.
