Residents Encouraged to Visit My Turn Website to Schedule Appointments

Mono County facebook logo e1613120615249 Effective July 1, Mono County Public Health’s walk-in clinics will be
winding down to twice per month as local partners, including Mammoth Hospital, join us in administering COVID-19 (Coronavirus) vaccines. Safe, free, and effective COVID-19 vaccines are now available to everyone age 12 and up, and Mono County Public Health urges unvaccinated residents and visitors to join the millions of Californians who’ve already been vaccinated in an effort to help end the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Walk-in Vaccination Clinics have proven successful…”

“The Public Health walk-in clinics have proven successful over the past several months, and nearly 65% of our eligible population is fully vaccinated against COVID-19,” stated Bryan Wheeler, Mono County Director of Public Health. “While we are proud of the progress we’ve made, the virus is still present in Mono County, and positive cases continue to pop-up amongst our unvaccinated residents and visitors. In addition, we’re experiencing severe variants throughout the United States, threatening our positivity rate, and potentially stressing our local healthcare system. We continue to urge residents and visitors to get vaccinated in an effort to protect our community.”
