Long Beach Expands Hours For No-Appointment COVID Vaccines At Convention Center

LONG BEACH (CBSLA) — Health officials Wednesday expanded the hours for no-appointment COVID-19 vaccinations at the Long Beach Convention Center.

Vaccinations are now available from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturdays.

Those seeking a vaccine can walk up or drive-thru without making an appointment.

"We continue to see tremendous growth in our vaccination numbers," Mayor Robert Garcia said in a statement. "By increasing non-appointment availability options and making it even easier to receive a vaccine, we hope to see those numbers go up even more."

For those interested in scheduling an appointment, they can be made by using the MyTurn.ca.gov website or by calling 833-422-4255.
