Limited Public Vaccination Scheduling for Those 65+ Now Available in Lake County

Lake County, CA (February 3, 2021) — The County of Lake Health Services Department’s Public Health Division is very pleased to announce vaccination scheduling is now available for Lake County residents aged 65 or greater. Appointments are limited due to vaccine supply. We will initially open up a few days of appointments, and then increase the number of available slots as we ensure adequate vaccine.

Those 65+ can visit http://health.co.lake.ca.us/Coronavirus/Vaccines.htm, and click the links to register. People that have difficulty navigating the online scheduling platform are encouraged to call 707-993-4644 for assistance. Do not call this number if online appointments are filled; check again in a few days, and see if more slots have opened up.

Remember, these appointments are for Lake County residents, 65 years old and older. Please do not make an appointment if you do not qualify. We will check ID at the entrance of the site, and you will be turned away if you do not meet the criteria. Please also be patient, and do not show up at the sites without an appointment.

If you are in a group that has previously been vaccinated, but missed out for some reason, you can email MHOAC@lakecountyca.gov, and we will contact you when a spot is available.

When eligible, Lake County residents are encouraged to get vaccinated. If you have chronic medical conditions you are concerned may affect your ability to be safely vaccinated, please contact your medical provider.

Vaccine questions can now be answered by dialing 211 or texting “covid19” to 211-211. Additional resources are also available here:
