Public Health-run vaccination clinics have no fees for patients, regardless of health insurance or immigration status, according to the county. The mobile clinics, where a team of vaccinators travels to community sites around the county, provide free doses as well. Many of the county clinics accept walk-ins now, with no appointment necessary.
COVID-19 vaccination appointments are much more available now than they have been in recent months, when public officials compared the process to searching for in-demand concert tickets online.
For an appointment, search by ZIP code or city on the MyTurn website, at myturn.ca.gov, which has a database of providers and appointments all over California. The Santa Barbara County Public Health Department also has direct links to pharmacies and other providers on its website at publichealthsbc.org/vaccine.
