SAN FRANCISCO - City and public health leaders in San Francisco offered new details on how mass vaccinations will unfold.
The nation and the Bay Area celebrated the creation of the COVID-19 vaccines, but an overwhelming majority of people still wonder when and how they will get their dose.
San Francisco Public Health Director Dr. Grant Colfax said in most cases, physicians will administer the vaccine doses. Since the majority of people will be receiving vaccine from their provider they will receive notification from that provider, when and how the vaccine is available, Colfax said. For those who do not have a private provider, we are going to be working within our healthcare system to notify patients within our Department of Public Health community clinics.
