Salem State is proud to offer space to the City of Salem at our South Campus Harrington Gym to vaccinate people who qualify per the DPH Vaccine Distribution Plan for residents of Salem, Beverly, Danvers, Marblehead, and Swampscott. To learn about this process, visit the city’s vaccination website.

Please note that the community vaccination clinics on South Campus are for external members of the community and are separate from our Salem State campus vaccination clinics.

Salem State faculty, staff, and students are also following the phased distribution rollout schedule outlined by the DPH Vaccine Distribution Plan. The Salem State campus vaccination clinics are held at the O’Keefe Center and are for qualifying Salem State students and employees only. Please read this important message for further information.
