Berkeley's Mass Vaccination Site Moves To A West Berkeley

Press release from City of Berkeley:

June 29, 2021

Berkeley, California - Anyone who is at least 12 years old can now get a COVID-19 vaccination 5 days a week at a West Berkeley site that's easy to reach on bike, bus, transit or car.

Located just off San Pablo Avenue, the Berkeley Adult School site also has a testing kiosk when people need testing for travel, workplaces, exposure or when experiencing COVID-19 symptoms.

This site also represents a transition to a neighborhood setting from the City-facilitated mass vaccination site at Golden Gate Fields, where Curative Inc. and the City coordinated to vaccinate nearly 100,000 people over 4 months until its last day on Saturday, June 26.

Reach out to those who may be unaware of how and where to get a shot and let them know that vaccinations are more convenient than ever. You can make an appointment or just walk-up during operating business hours. Got your first dose elsewhere? You can also come here for critical second doses.

Even the vaccinated should get tested when experiencing symptoms

• Fever or chills
• Cough
• Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
• Fatigue
• Muscle or body aches
• Headache
• New loss of taste or smell
• Sore throat
• Congestion or runny nose
• Nausea or vomiting
• Diarrhea

When exposed to COVID-19, unvaccinated should get tested
