Get vaccinated at ACL Fest
Friday, October 1, 2021 by Tai Moses
Want to celebrate music and life at the same time? Get vaccinated at the Austin City Limits Music Festival! Travis County’s intrepid mobile vaccine team will be on the scene, providing Covid-19 vaccines on both weekends of the festival, Oct. 1-3 and Oct. 8-10, from noon-4 p.m. Anyone who’s 12 and older can receive their first or second dose of the Pfizer vaccine. Pfizer booster shots will be available as well to those who qualify. If you’re getting the booster, bring your vaccination card so it can be updated. Travis County Constable George Morales points out that, while the county now has more than 70 percent of its 12-and-older population vaccinated, “we can’t stop here.” He says the mobile vaccination collaborative “is committed to continuing our efforts to go where the people are and make certain everyone who wants the vaccine can get one.” Not going to ACL but still need the vaccine? Check out Travis County’s online calendar and map for a Covid vaccination event near you.
