Looking for a comprehensive list of vaccinating sites in Alameda County?
The updated (bivalent) COVID-19 vaccine is available for everyone ages 6 months and older. This vaccine targets the Omicron variant and the original virus strain. Here is an infographic from CDPH that shows the current recommended timing for COVID-19 vaccination.
Four COVID-19 vaccines are currently approved or authorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for primary series vaccination. The Johnson and Johnson (J&J) vaccine is no longer available. The three available vaccines are:
- The Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna bivalent COVID-19 vaccines are authorized for people ages 6 months and older.
- The Novavax COVID-19 vaccine is authorized for people ages 12 and older
Alameda County supports vaccine choice, and vaccine safety is a top priority. If you have questions about which vaccine is right for you, we encourage you to speak with a health care provider. While the benefits of getting vaccinated far outweigh potential risks, people should become familiar how vaccines may impact them. Please see fact sheets below about each vaccine, available in multiple languages.
