SAN JOSE, Calif. (KGO) People lined up early Friday morning for a pop-up vaccine clinic in San Jose s Alviso neighborhood.

I have been trying every day since the last week when they opened up and I can t because they keep being full, Sanchez said.

GILROY, Calif. - A one-day pop-up vaccination clinic was held in Gilroy on Friday specifically for people 65 years years and older.
The hope is to get COVID under control in the area with the highest rates of infection in Santa Clara County.
All eligible recipients had to do was show up, get a wristband, and get their vaccine dose.
It was the easiest ever. I just got up, walked across the railroad tracks, got in line, and here I am, said Linda Stites of Gilroy.
Gardner Health Services already has a clinic in Gilroy and COVID testing had shown a problem.

Latinx seniors in Santa Clara County are the most at-risk community from COVID-19 but the least vaccinated, so local leaders are asking for community help.
On Thursday, San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo, County Supervisor Cindy Chavez and Gardner Health Services CEO Reymundo Espinoza held a virtual briefing encouraging residents to volunteer and help inform and assist residents eligible for the vaccine.
Spanish-speaking volunteers would be the most needed, Liccardo said, so that they could communicate effectively with the Latinx community.
