The Health Care District of Palm Beach County is committed to achieving community immunity. To date, we have provided more than 200,000 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. As we transition to more targeted mobile outreach, the Health Care District is no longer scheduling vaccination appointments at the mass vaccination sites. We encourage all eligible Floridians to get vaccinated against COVID-19 by reaching out to their primary care providers or one of the many pharmacies throughout Palm Beach County, including Publix, CVS, Walmart, Sam’s Club, Winn Dixie, and Walgreens. Per state guidelines, effective April 5th, all Floridians are eligible to receive any COVID-19 vaccine as authorized by the Food and Drug Administration. This includes individuals 12 years of age and older (those ages 12 to 17 can only receive the Pfizer brand vaccine).
If you need a primary care provider, we welcome you and your family to make the Health Care District’s C. L. Brumback Primary Care Clinics your medical home. Call 561-642-1000 to schedule an appointment at a clinic near you. Your C. L. Brumback Primary Care Clinics’ provider will assess all of your health needs, including the COVID-19 vaccine if you have not already received it.
For the Health Care District’s Mobile Clinic vaccination schedule please visit our COVID-19 Information Center page.
For vaccination locations near you, please visit Palm Beach County’s COVID-19 Vaccination webpage.
