REDWOOD CITY, Calif. - As of Tuesday, 159,357 San Mateo County residents have received at least the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, representing 24.8 percent of the county s population age 16 and older who would be eligible for the vaccine.
The county is currently vaccinating Phase 1A and 1B groups, which include health care workers, residents of long-term care facilities, those age 65 and older and workers in the education, child care, food and agriculture and emergency services sectors.
This week, San Mateo County is offering a free drive-through vaccination clinic at San Francisco Airport (SFO) for residents 65 years old and older as well
83-year-old Clara Jackson just got vaccinated, so did Rose Jacobs-Gibson, at long last. I m feeling good about it, feeling good that it s finally available and I had the privilege of taking it, said Gibson.
Ravenswood Family Health Center in East Palo Alto hosted the clinic, after securing 1,100 Moderna vaccine doses from San Mateo County for local seniors. We have 1,800 of our patients who are 65 or older, others have been waiting for a while so we opened it up to neighbors who are not our patients, said Natalie Hodgdon at Ravenswood Family Health Center.
The line outside was long. Caregivers and healthcare workers were also invited to get the shot.
