LOS ANGELES - Starting April 7, 16 drive-thru and walk-up COVID-19 vaccine clinics will pop up across Los Angeles County with hopes of providing access to more people. The clinics, which will be held outdoors, are open for everyone and will run through May 1.
The clinics are made possible by L.A. Care Health Plan and Blue Shield of California Promise Health Plan, in partnership with USC Pharmacy. The clinics will be placed in high-need areas near their jointly operated Community Resource Centers throughout Los Angeles County.
In addition to being held outdoors, safety guidelines recommended by public health officials will be followed.
The pop-up clinics will administer the Johnson & Johnson vaccine which is only approved for people 18 years old and over. People must be eligible for the vaccine under Los Angeles County guidelines. By April 15, all California residents aged 16 and older will be eligible for the vaccine.
