As of today, the safe and effective vaccines are continuing to offer fully vaccinated people a high degree of protection against the worst outcomes of COVID-19: severe disease, hospitalization, and death, including against the widespread Delta variant. But even highly effective vaccines experience a reduction in protection over time.
On Wednesday, federal public health officials announced a plan to begin offering COVID-19 vaccine booster shots this fall. The Administration is not recommending you go out and get a booster today. Instead, starting the week of September 20th, fully vaccinated adults could begin getting booster shots 8 months after their second shot of an mRNA vaccine. This decision was made entirely based on science in an effort to stay one step ahead of the virus. For more on this announcement, please click here.

This has become a pandemic of the unvaccinated. Getting the vaccine could save your life. Please, if you haven’t done so already, get vaccinated to protect yourself and those around you.
Get Vaccinated!
If you have questions about the vaccine, please consult your doctor.
Everyone age 12 and older who lives or works in LA County is eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. Please check VaccinateLACounty.com for updated information on walk-in vaccinations or to book an appointment ahead of time.
To find a vaccination site near you, please visit corona-virus.la/VaxSites . Minors must be accompanied by an adult and bring a signed consent form to receive the Pfizer vaccine.
If you have a disability or do not have access to the internet and need assistance making your vaccination appointment, you can contact the County’s Call Center –– open from 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. –– at (833) 540-0473. You can also call this number or fill out an online request form if you or a family member need to be vaccinated at home.
