The COVID-19 vaccine has arrived and is being distributed in the City of Los Angeles and across the county.
As doses of the vaccine arrive in Los Angeles, city teams are supporting the L.A. County Department of Public Health in distributing vaccinations at several sites throughout communities.
Right now, doses of the vaccine remain limited, and they’re being distributed in phases –– starting with Angelenos at the highest risk and expanding to more groups in the weeks and months ahead.
Those currently eligible to receive the vaccine in L.A. County are:
All healthcare workers with direct or indirect exposure to patients or infectious materials
Residents of skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) and long-term care facilities
“We are committed to increasing the number of daily vaccines available as soon and as safely as possible, Mayor Garcetti said. “To prepare for that increase, we’re tapping into a resource at the heart of our COVID-19 response since May: we are working with the county and State to turn Dodger Stadium, one of our testing sites, into a mega-vaccination center. This is a critical step forward on the road to our ultimate goal: increasing vaccine distribution to more and more Angelenos.”
The city will ensure that all vaccinations are distributed in accordance with CDC, State, and county guidance to eligible populations. For more information about vaccine eligibility, Angelenos can visit VaccinateLACounty.com.
While COVID-19 testing will no longer be offered at Dodger Stadium, the city will continue to provide free testing to residents at our other permanent and mobile sites across Los Angeles. Anyone seeking a test can find more information at Coronavirus.LACity.org/Testing or should contact their health care provider.
A new webpage provides more information about the vaccine and links to all the resources you need to stay up to speed about the rollout.
This rollout will take time and is complicated. Never before have public health professionals had to vaccinate every single person around the world in the midst of a pandemic. The goal is to get as many people vaccinated as soon as possible in Los Angeles and across America.
There’s never been a more important moment to stay home, keep your distance, wear masks, and avoid gatherings.
