VACCINATIONS FOR COUNTY RESIDENTS OVER 65 STILL THE PRIORITY

San Bernardino County continues to receive and administer a steady stream of both Pfizer and Moderna vaccine doses, but demand for the vaccinations still exceed supply. Individuals over the age of 65 continue to be the priority. The county is also taking additional steps to assist seniors trying to schedule vaccination appointments with extended hours for its vaccination hotline and added staff to handle calls. Appointments are available only to people aged 65 and over who live or work in San Bernardino County; proof of age and residency will be required.

There is a county vaccination site locally at Copper Mountain College in Joshua Tree. Vaccination sites are not the only place to receive a vaccine. People are encouraged to check with their healthcare provider and in some cases their employer for vaccine information, availability and locations. A number of hospitals, pharmacies and physician practices have been provided doses of the vaccines. Residents should check the county’s vaccination webpage often to see if appointments are available.
