Registration open now: New Hampshire 'Booster Blitz' COVID-19 vaccine clinics at 15 locations

New Hampshire opened registration Wednesday for Operation Booster Blitz, an event with 15 community-based sites where COVID-19 vaccine shots will be offered Saturday, Dec. 11. Locations across the state include Stratham and Rochester in the Seacoast region.

Registration is now open at vaccines.nh.gov. Appointments can be made for up to 5 people at a time through one account. A total of 10,000 appointments will be available across the 15 sites.

"As New England states and New Hampshire continue to experience a surge in COVID-19 cases, and with uncertainties about the new Omicron variant, it is more important than ever that folks get their booster shots to help protect themselves, their families, and their communities," Gov. Chris Sununu said. "Through opportunities like these Booster Blitz locations, New Hampshire continues to work to open up access to vaccines as much as possible, in addition to pharmacy sites and doctor's offices."
