​COVID Booster Shot Clinic Scheduled for November 15

Redwood Coast Medical Service (RCSM) will host a COVID-19 booster shot clinic on Monday, November 15 from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM at the South Coast Volunteer Fire Department at 39215 Church Street in Gualala.

Modern and Pfizer booster doses will be available at this event. Please note supplies are limited and will be given first come/first served.

Please bring your vaccination card with you.

For individuals who received a Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, the following groups are eligible for a booster shot at 6 months or more after their initial series:

• 65 years and older
• Age 18+ who live in long-term care settings
• Age 18+ who have underlying medical conditions
• Age 18+ who work or live in high-risk settings or are essential workers

For individuals who received the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, booster shots are also recommended for those who are 18 and older and who were vaccinated two or more months ago. There are now booster recommendations for all three available COVID-19 vaccines in the United States.
​
Eligible individuals may choose which vaccine they receive as a booster dose. Some people may have a preference for the vaccine type that they originally received, and others may prefer to get a different booster. CDC’s recommendations allow for this type of mix and match dosing for booster shots.
