Riverside County health officials scheduled several COVID-19 vaccine clinics throughout region
Jan. 16 clinic in Lake Elsinore will be exclusively for those 65 and older
Riverside County is planning several COVID-19 vaccine clinics for those in Phase 1A (all tiers), 1B (tier 1) and individuals 65 and older.
The Jan. 16 clinic at Diamond Stadium is reserved for those 65 and older only.
“The county team is moving quickly to open more sites that will vaccinate even more of our residents,” said Board Chair Karen Spiegel, Second District Supervisor. “We know so many of our residents want the vaccine and we’re working diligently to make that happen.”
The clinics will provide vaccines free of charge, however those who show up will be required to register prior to arrival and show proof of eligibility (badge, business identification, letter of proof from employer). Medical insurance information will be requested. Those 65 and older who need assistance making an appointment can call the Riverside County Office of Aging at 800-510-2020 or 2-1-1.
