What COVID vaccines are avaliable to me and what do they do?
COVID-19 vaccination will help protect you by creating an antibody (immune system) response without having to experience sickness. The vaccines that are currently available are
People are considered fully vaccinated
- 2 weeks after their second dose in a 2-dose series, such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or
- 2 weeks after a single-dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson vaccine
COVID-19 vaccines are effective at preventing COVID-19 disease and decreasing symptoms, especially severe illness and death. However, we’re still learning how well COVID-19 vaccines keep people from spreading the disease so you can still get COVID i.e. test positive and spread the virus after receiving the vaccine.
Where can I get vaccinated?
Available for LA County and San Bernardino County residents. Enter in your zip code to find the location nearest you. Starting April 15th, all individuals in California 16+ are eligible to receive the vaccine.
But I just had COVID, do I really need to get boosted?
Yes! Here is some information about getting boosted after having COVID!
Vaccination myths
We want to acknowledge the long and ongoing history of medical violence that disproportionately targets low-income communities of color, immigrant communities, incarcerated folx, women, and LGBTQ+ communities, both domestically and abroad, and validate the feelings of distrust and unease that many experience when receiving medical treatment within the healthcare system. We encourage every individual to make their own, informed, consensual choice whether or not to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. It is our hope that the information on this webpage will assist in your decision-making process. If you have any questions regarding the information on this webpage, or if you would like to see additional resources, please reach out to us at [email protected].
