Getting vaccinated is as easy as pie
Friday, January 28, 2022 by Tai Moses
This again? I know what you’re thinking: Do you people never tire of harping on about vaccination? No, we do not. That’s because getting fully vaccinated against Covid-19 is one of the best decisions you’ll ever make, for your own health and for the health of those around you. Travis County, Austin Public Health and their community partners continue to host a variety of free and convenient Covid vaccine distribution events every week. No appointments, health insurance or proof of citizenship is required. Simply consult the handy online calendar and map to find the date, time and location of a vaccine event near you. All Austin Public Health sites offer the Moderna, Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson vaccines, including third doses for the immunocompromised and booster shots. Four APH clinics offer pediatric vaccinations. If you’re receiving your second or third dose or booster, bring your CDC Covid-19 Vaccination Record Card so it can be updated.
