Second Dose Appointments

Arroyo Valley High School in San Bernardino will become a second dose vaccination site that will administer Pfizer vaccinations on Thursday, January 28 and Friday, January 29, 2021.

Is this the only site offering second dose vaccinations? I don’t live close to the City of San Bernardino and it is not easy for me to get there.

Arroyo Valley High School is the first second dose-only vaccination site announced by the County so far. The County is working to open other second dose-only sites countywide, including the High Desert, Morongo Basin, mountain communities and in the western part of the County. New sites and the availability to register for second dose vaccinations will be communicated as they are opened via email, phone calls, social media and other communications means.

In addition to County-operated sites, second dose vaccinations are/will be administered through local hospitals, pharmacies and physician practice partners. Please contact the location where you received your first vaccine dose for information on second dose vaccine appointments.

Why isn’t there an automatic appointment set up for a second dose vaccination at the time when the first dose vaccination is scheduled?

The County is in the process of implementing a new appointment registration process in which anyone who registers for an appointment at a San Bernardino County Public Health site for their first dose will automatically be scheduled for their second.

Will the second dose-only site have both Pfizer and Moderna?

Only Pfizer second doses will be available on January 28 and 29 at Arroyo Valley High School. The County will provide information to the public on locations and dates for Moderna second dose vaccinations as they are confirmed.
