Press release from City of Berkeley: June 29, 2021 Berkeley, California - Anyone who is at least 12 years old can now get a COVID-19 vaccination 5 days a week at a West Berkeley site that's easy to reach on bike, bus, transit or car. Located just off San Pablo Avenue, the Berkeley Adult School site also has a testing kiosk when people need testing for travel, workplaces, exposure or when experiencing COVID-19 symptoms. This site also represents a transition to a neighborhood setting from the City-facilitated mass vaccination site at Golden Gate Fields, where Curative Inc. and the City coordinated to vaccinate nearly 100,000 people over 4 months until its last day on Saturday, June 26. Reach out to those who may be unaware of how and where to get a shot and let them know that vaccinations are more convenient than ever. You can make an appointment or just walk-up during operating business hours. Got your first dose elsewhere? You can also come here for critical second doses. Even the vaccinated should get tested when experiencing symptoms Fever or chills Cough Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing Fatigue Muscle or body aches Headache New loss of taste or smell Sore throat Congestion or runny nose Nausea or vomiting Diarrhea When exposed to COVID-19, unvaccinated should get tested Links: COVID-19 Vaccine (City of Berkeley) MyTurn (State of California Vaccine Site) COVID-19 symptoms (CDC) COVID-19 Testing (City of Berkeley) When to get tested (California Dept. of Public Health) Domestic Travel Requirements (CDC) This press release was produced by City of Berkeley.
