Thousands of COVID-19 Vaccine Appointments Added in Santa Clara County – NBC Bay Area

Santa Clara County officials announced late on Sunday that the local supply of the COVID vaccine has increased and that as a result, thousands of appointments have been added this week, including 10,000 more just for this weekend.

All people 16 and older who live or work in the county are eligible and encouraged to sign up for a vaccination appointment at sccfreevax.org, said Dr. Jennifer Tong, associate chief medical officer at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center.

“This includes our community members who have already had and recovered from COVID-19. The vaccines are our most critical and effective tools to protect you and your loved ones, especially with variants of the virus circulating in our community.”

County officials said more than 57 percent of people 16 and older who live in Santa Clara County have received a first dose and more than 31 percent have been fully vaccinated.
