It’s never too late to get vaccinated
Wednesday, February 16, 2022 by Tai Moses
Getting vaccinated for Covid these days is easier than ordering a cup of coffee at Starbucks – and it probably takes less time. Travis County, Austin Public Health and their community partners continue to host a variety of convenient, free Covid-19 vaccine distribution events every week. No appointments are required. Simply visit the handy online calendar and map to find the date, time and location of a nearby vaccine event. 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, remember to bring your CDC Covid-19 Vaccination Record Card so it can be updated. And feel free to treat yourself to a mocha Frappuccino after you get your shot. You deserve it.
