Drop-in vaccines through 3/15 at SF General for eligible San Franciscans
Today (Wednesday, March 10) we received the following information from the child care team at the SF Department of Public Health. Please read details about current eligibility guidelines for the COVID-19 vaccine.
Dear Education and Childcare Partners:
San Francisco is offering free COVID-19 vaccinations to all eligible residents who live in the Bayview, Mission, Excelsior, Portola, OMI, Visitacion Valley, Tenderloin, and Treasure Island. Current eligibility: residents 65+ OR Phase 1A OR Phase 1B in these zip codes: 94124, 94134, 94110, 94112, 94107, 94102, 94103 and 94130.
Here are the details:
- If eligible, you can drop-in to Zuckerberg San Francisco General, Building 30 (1001 Potrero Ave) in the Mission every day from 9 am – 3 pm. No appointment is needed. There are no insurance requirements – you can be uninsured or have any insurance provider.
- As a reminder, current eligibility includes those who are 65 years and older OR those who work in the following types of jobs: healthcare, child care, education, restaurants and other food service, transit, and emergency services. For these drop-ins, you can be a volunteer in those fields or unemployed but looking for work in those fields.
- No one will be turned away for lack of proof of residence, age, or occupation but you may be asked to self-attest. You can read more here: https://sfhealthnetwork.org/covid-19-vaccine/.
- Zuckerberg San Francisco General will try to accommodate drop-ins after March 15, but efforts will be focused on vaccinating San Francisco Health Network patients in Phase 1C (people with disabilities or chronic disease) beginning on March 15, 2021.
- After two days of extending vaccines to drop-ins for eight priority zips, we can report minimal wait times and no one eligible was turned away for lack of vaccine.
- The Southeast Health Center (2401 Keith St) in the Bayview is open to drop-ins for the 94134 and 94124 zip codes but the smaller site cannot accommodate the same capacity as Zuckerberg San Francisco General.
Let us know if you have any questions and thank you for helping us get San Francisco vaccinated!
