As distribution of COVID-19 vaccines across Texas continues, more Nueces County residents will be able to line up for their shots.
As of late December, officials are giving vaccines not only to front-line health care workers and nursing home residents, but also to people 65 and older and those with chronic medical conditions.
Here’s a guide to getting the COVID-19 vaccine in Nueces County.
Which locations in Nueces County are COVID-19 vaccine providers and how do I sign up?
The city of Corpus Christi and Driscoll Children s Hospital are operating a vaccination clinic at the American Bank Center when vaccines are available.
Texas health officials on Sunday released a list of coronavirus vaccination hubs that will receive the state s next shipment of vaccines.
The 28 hubs will get 158,825 doses of the vaccine this week, according to the Texas Department of State Health Services. Another 38,300 doses will go to other providers across the state.
The number of doses that each provider is getting is based on its own estimate of how many people it could vaccinate in a week, DSHS said.
The hubs are meant to streamline large-scale vaccination as Texas continues to prioritize vaccinating people who are health care workers, 65 and older with underlying medical conditions.
