We Are Falling Short â Call to Open Vaccination Sites in Tenderloin, Treasure Island
San Francisco community leaders and Supervisor Matt Haney are calling on the city to open COVID-19 vaccination sites with easy public access on Treasure Island and in the Tenderloin neighborhood.
Low-income ZIP codes in the two areas are among those targeted by the state to receive a greater vaccine supply. But residents often lack internet access to make appointments or a way to get to mass vaccination sites like Moscone Center, said Del Seymour, who directs the job readiness nonprofit Code Tenderloin.
âTreasure Island is a long way, Seymour said. And if you are disabled or you are not comfortable yet getting on the bus because of COVID, thatâs a barrier right there.
