About

This study measured the time taken for drive-through vaccination clinics to distribute medication to large groups of children (aged 9-18 years) and adults. Results showed that the presence of children increased the total vaccination processing time per vehicle, but did not significantly impact individual procedure times. Drive-through clinics were found to efficiently provide a large number of vaccinations, offering valuable experience for medical personnel and aiding in disaster planning.
