The county has the third-highest per-capita vaccination administration rate compared to nine other California counties with similar population sizes, trailing only San Francisco and San Mateo counties, according to Sonoma County officials.
To date, 87 percent of the county s residents 75 and older have been received at least one dose and 74 percent are now fully vaccinated. County officials plan to target areas that have been disproportionately affected by the pandemic like the Sonoma Valley, where a vaccine clinic opened this week at the La Luz Center to serve Latinx residents. In addition to being grateful for the truly remarkable partnerships with our local health care providers that are making this effort possible, we also want to applaud everyone who has been vaccinated or who has scheduled an appointment, county Supervisor Lynda Hopkins said. We all have to do this together and continue to stay safe.

Of those, 165,460 residents are fully vaccinated, roughly 40 percent of the eligible population in the county. All our hard work is paying off in the growing number of county residents who are now fully vaccinated, county Health Officer Dr. Sundari Mase said. We are moving closer to achieving herd immunity, which is a direct result of vaccinations and our residents taking care of one another.

Health care officials say there’s reluctance among some of the LatinX community in Sonoma County to get a coronavirus vaccination. Officials announced yesterday that the county will hold its first Spanish-language town hall tomorrow, Wednesday, April 21. It will be a virtual town hall that will begin at 5 p.m., and officials confirmed that English translation will be available as well.
In the meantime, a vaccination clinic will open in the City of Sonoma this Sunday to serve LatinX residents. The clinic is located at La Luz Center, and it will administer up to 200 vaccine doses per day by appointment only. The location will operate from 1 to 7 p.m. on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. The clinic was made possible thanks to county officials, Sonoma Valley Community Health Center, and Sonoma Valley Hospital.
