County schedules multiple vaccine clinics to meet demand of 12- to 15-year-olds
With demand for the COVID-19 vaccine high among Yolo County’s newly eligible 12- to 15-year-olds, the county continues to add clinics to the calendar.
Two upcoming clinics in Davis and one in West Sacramento will offer the Pfizer vaccine for everyone 12 and up.
The Davis clinics open to all Yolo County students will take place at Harper Junior High School, with a drive-thru clinic on Sunday and a walk-up clinic on Tuesday.
The Sunday clinic was scheduled “due to overwhelming demand” after the Tuesday clinic was announced, according to Davis Joint Unified School District Superintendent John Bowes.

But Yolo County Health Officer Dr. Aimee Sisson said Thursday she discourages routine testing of people who are fully vaccinated and have no COVID symptoms, in part because of the possibility of false positives that lead to “unnecessary isolation and quarantine.”
