**Due to limited vaccine supply, the County of San Diego cannot provide COVID-19 vaccinations for individuals 65 years of age and older at this time. Planning efforts are under way to vaccinate this population of Phase 1B next. Healthcare providers may administer vaccinations to this population, if they have doses available.**

The County of San Diego (County) is currently hosting COVID-19 vaccination events for healthcare workers and employees and residents of long-term care facilities, based upon federal and state guidance and recommendations from the County's COVID-19 Vaccine Clinical Advisory Group. 

Eligible individuals should first contact their medical provider if interested in being vaccinated for COVID-19. If you are not able to receive a COVID-19 vaccination from your medical provider, please see below for additional options available. 

If you are a healthcare worker and work for an enrolled and approved COVID-19 vaccination provider, your employer will contact you directly about being vaccinated.

All other healthcare workers, including those who work in organizations not enrolled and approved to provide COVID-19 vaccinations, may register for an appointment at a County COVID-19 vaccination site if they are in an eligible group (see Eligibility list below).
