We’ve created this form to make sure no dose of COVID-19 vaccine goes to waste. Put your name on our list to be offered a same-day appointment at our Grass Valley vaccination clinic. If you don’t have access to the internet, call 2-1-1 or 1-833-DIAL211 and a call agent will get you signed up. 211 call agents are available 24/7 and in English and Spanish.

Sign up for MyTurn

We also encourage you to sign up for MyTurn.ca.gov to allow you to make an appointment locally, as supply allows. Sign up at www.myturn.ca.gov or call 1-833-422-4255 to register. In the next few weeks, we expect MyTurn to start sending out texts or emails to eligible people when appointments open up. Until then, you can check back at the MyTurn page to see if there are appointments available. We are still piloting MyTurn so appointments are limited at this time.

Please stay informed as this is an evolving situation and continue to be patient as we meet this unprecedented challenge

Vaccination is an essential tool for ending this pandemic. Even after you are vaccinated, we must all stay vigilant and continue to wear masks, keep our distance, wash our hands, and avoid gatherings so that we can return to a more normal way of life as quickly as possible.
