She is scheduled  to visit Waipahu High School at 1 p.m., where the Hawaii Pacific Health COVID-19 Vax Squad Bus will be offering vaccines from noon to 4 p.m.

Biden will be returning to the U.S. from Japan, where she will lead the U.S. delegation at the Tokyo Olympic opening ceremony Friday.

The vaccination clinic is open to anyone ages 12 and older, according to a press release. Minors 12-17 years old should be accompanied by a parent or guardian or bring a Department of Education vaccination consent form completed by a parent or guardian with them.

Individuals visiting the clinic must wear a mask and should bring a photo I.D., medical insurance card, printed and completed questionnaire and appointment confirmations.

Civil Beat is a small nonprofit newsroom that provides free content with no paywall. That means readership growth alone can’t sustain our journalism.

The truth is that less than 1% of our monthly readers are financial supporters. To remain a viable business model for local news, we need a higher percentage of readers-turned-donors.
