One of Fulton’s four COVID-19 vaccination sites will temporarily close Tuesday to host voters.

The Emma Darnell Aviation Museum & Conference Center (formerly the Aviation Community Cultural Center) at 3900 Aviation Circle NW in Atlanta will be one of the 257 polling places where folks will decide on city council races and a transit tax referendum.

They will not be accepting reservations nor walks-ups wanting the vaccine that day.
