Vaccine Update
Frequently Asked Question: How do I get my 2nd dose appointment?
After receiving your first dose, you will become eligible for your second dose after a waiting period of 21 days if you received Pfizer and 28 days if you received Moderna.
You do not need to receive your second dose on the exact date you become eligible. You have a window of 6 weeks from getting your first dose to receive your second dose. Please do not schedule your second dose earlier than recommended. Refer to your vaccination card, which will list the date you received your first dose.
There are three ways to secure a 2nd dose appointment:
1) You will receive an email from Public Health with links to appointments the week before your 2nd dose is due. You select a link and make an appointment.
3) You can also call the registration hotline 805-477-7161. This hotline is intended for those with limited access to the internet.
There are 2nd dose appointments available now. If you are in need of your 2nd dose please make an appointment to complete the COVID-19 vaccine process.
