The Tarrant County Public Health Department announced on Friday it had run out of names on its vaccine registration list.
People who sign up now will get an appointment within one or two days, the department said. I really believe we are at the tail end of this, said Dr. Rebeca Sharp, an internal medicine specialist in Euless.
Sharp said the challenge will be convincing young people to get a shot.
For those who received their first doses of the Pfizer vaccine at Globe Life Field, the second doses will be administered at AT&T Stadium. Those in need of a second shot can arrive between 9 a.m to 5 p.m. and should bring their vaccination card.
The Community Vaccination Center is located in the northwest corner of the stadium, 900 East Randol Mill Road, in Arlington.
Handicap parking and wheelchair assistance are available near the entrance. Those who need handicap access should ask the police officers and will be directed to the front of the lot next to the building.
