HOW TO SCHEDULE YOUR VACCINATION AT A COUNTY SITE

Visit VaccinateLACounty.com to schedule appointments at LA COUNTY Vaccination Sites. Residents who don't have computer access may call (833) 540-0473 between 8 a.m. and 8:30 p.m. for assistance with reservations.

In addition to the L.A. County operated sites, more than 75 pharmacies have registered to provide vaccinations. Vaccine allocations are also going to large healthcare provider organizations like Kaiser Permanente and Providence Health and Services. In addition, residents may call their healthcare provider, who may direct them to a preferred location for the vaccine.

The five established sites, which were chosen for their regional accessibility and their ability to handle large capacities are:

Pomona Fairplex, 1101 W McKinley Ave., Pomona, CA 91768

The Forum, 3900 W Manchester Blvd., Inglewood, CA 90305

California State University, Northridge, 18111 Nordhoff St., Northridge, CA 91330

L.A. County Office of Education, 12830 Columbia Way, Downey, CA 90242

Six Flags Magic Mountain, 26101 Magic Mountain Pkwy., Valencia, CA 91355

These large-scale vaccination sites started operating Tuesday, January 19, and will be able to vaccinate approximately 4,000 people per day at each site, significantly increasing the number of people vaccinated. The large-scale vaccination sites will aim to vaccinate 500,000 Los Angeles County residents in a month.

To ensure that people at higher risk of transmission and illness are vaccinated first, Los Angeles County has established a tier system. In addition to those 65+, priority for current vaccination is going to frontline health care workers and residents and staff at skilled nursing and long-term care facilities.

This strategy works to protect our entire community by ensuring that our most vulnerable and most critical healthcare workers do not get sick.

Vaccinations are free, and available to all regardless of immigration status or insurance coverage. For those who have insurance, coverage information may be requested as part of the appointment scheduling process.

NOTE: The vaccine supply is still extremely limited, and we continue to urge patience as we work urgently with our federal and county partners to expand capacity and supply in the weeks ahead.
