Allegheny Health Network Holds Appointment-Only COVID-19 Vaccination Clinic at PNC Park Today

PITTSBURGH – Allegheny Health Network (AHN) today hosted a COVID-19 vaccination clinic at PNC Park specifically for high-risk patients age 75 years and older. More than 2,500 eligible AHN patients who were notified to make an appointment pre-registered for the clinic and received a first dose of the vaccine.

“AHN, Highmark Health and the Pittsburgh Pirates have a long history of working together in various ways to promote the health and wellbeing of the greater Pittsburgh community and its residents,” said Cynthia Hundorfean, AHN President and CEO. “We are extremely grateful to the Pirates for aiding our community’s response to the pandemic by opening PNC Park as an additional AHN vaccination clinic site that will help us to vaccinate a larger number of people in our region over the coming weeks and months as more vaccine supply becomes available.”

The AHN vaccine clinic was held in the Home Plate Club at PNC Park. ALCO Parking provided parking for vaccine recipients at no cost.

Based on the limited supply of the COVID-19 vaccine, AHN is currently holding appointment-only vaccination clinics that target the most vulnerable populations. As the vaccine supply increases and becomes more reliable, AHN will offer vaccination to more individuals. AHN patients who have a MyChart account will be alerted when a vaccine is available to them for scheduling.
