SUNNYVALE, CA — El Camino Health and LinkedIn are combining to increase capacity at a vaccination center at one of LinkedIn's unoccupied buildings in Sunnyvale to as many as 3,000 shots a day. The clinic has been offering vaccines on a limited basis since Mar. 15, according to a news release. Appointments are offered to anyone who is eligible and can be scheduled here. The building is being leased from Synopsys. "We're more than happy to support our partner, El Camino Health, in their efforts to equitably distribute the vaccine to the community's most vulnerable and underserved populations," said Katie Ferrick, senior director of community development and workplace programs at LinkedIn. The LinkedIn site is located off state Route 237, with public transit access via VTA. "Partnerships like this are essential to getting our community vaccinated as quickly as possible," said Sunnyvale Mayor Larry Klein. "We are excited about this opportunity and encourage our residents to take advantage of this new option." El Camino Health CEO Dan Woods said in a news release that once supply increases, vaccination clinics such as this one will serve as the "quickest path to resuming life as we knew it before the pandemic."
