On October 22, The Village South in collaboration with Walmart Pharmacy hosted a community vaccination event for both employees and consumers. During the event, vaccinations were available for the flu, hepatitis (A, B, A/B), tetanus, shingles, pneumonia, meningococcal disease, chickenpox, the mumps, and HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) as well as Pfizer and Moderna vaccines and boosters for COVID-19. This preventative care event was offered during working hours allowing staff to stop by without much disturbance to their working day. The planned three-hour event became a nearly five-hour success!

We are thankful to Walmart and its amazing pharmacy team for helping us keep our team and consumers healthy so we may continue our mission of Uplifting the Human Spirit!
