NOW AVAILABLE: UPDATED COVID-19 VACCINE
The updated COVID-19 vaccine is now available at retail pharmacies, health care provider offices and Public Health locations across Los Angeles County.
You can get vaccinated at home if you are homebound or have difficulty leaving home safely. Or consider requesting a mobile vaccine clinic at your workplace, organization or special event.
Get the new vaccine for maximum protection against severe illness, hospitalization, long COVID and death from the virus. For more information, visit PublicHealth.lacounty.gov/Vaccines.
Who Should Get Vaccinated?
Everyone 6 months and older should get at least one dose of the updated COVID-19 vaccine. The vaccine will provide enhanced protection against COVID-19, even if you’ve already been vaccinated, have had COVID-19 or have never been vaccinated against the virus.
Immunity to COVID infections wanes over time and with new variant strains circulating, there is increased potential for infection. The updated vaccine is safe and provides effective protection against severe illness from COVID-19 strains that are circulating now.
Older adults, pregnant people and anyone with underlying or chronic health conditions are more susceptible to severe illness from COVID-19 and should prioritize vaccination.
Check with your health care provider to learn what’s best for you and your loved ones or visit PublicHealth.lacounty.gov/Vaccines for more information.
