Boston's annual First Night festival, back after being canceled by the pandemic last year, included a mobile clinic where party goers could get the jab.

New Year's Eve revelers in Boston Friday night could see fireworks, hear live music and roll up their sleeves for COVID-19 vaccines and boosters.

Frederica Williams, the health center's chief executive, thinks it was a smart strategy to offer vaccines in a place where people may have been indulging before resolving to live healthier in 2022. "But [the state] had such a high number come in yesterday on the COVID count," he said, referring to the 21,137 positive cases reported Dec. 30, a single-day record in Massachusetts.

The Dorchester couple brought their 2-year-old son, sporting a"2022" crown he made from construction paper in preschool, to see ice sculptures.
