John Muir Health and Contra Costa Health Services (CCHS) are providing free, drive thru Mobile Clinics to administer COVID-19 vaccinations in Richmond and San Pablo over the next two Saturdays. The vaccines will be available by appointment to Contra Costa County residents age 65 or over.
Starting at 9 a.m., the Mobile Clinics will roll into Richmond High School, 1250 23
rd St. in Richmond on Sat., Feb. 27 and MacArthur Baptist Church, 2301 Rumrill Blvd. on Sat., March 6.
Vaccinations at these Mobile Clinics are available by appointment-only and preregistration is required. Per John Muir Health and Contra Costa Health Services, health insurance, immigration papers and payment is not required to receive the free vaccine. Since the Mobile Clinics are drive thru, a car is required, as is, again, Contra Costa County residency, meeting the 65 or over age requirement and an appointment. Service will be available in English and Spanish and other languages by request.
