Central Point, Ore. – A mobile vaccination unit that can administer up to 250 doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine per day is operating throughout Jackson County, Oregon. The vaccines are free and available for anyone 16 years of age or older.
Mobile vaccination events provide an additional option for individuals who want a vaccine but face increased barriers and challenges for accessing and traveling to established vaccine clinics. Partners at the Jackson County Vaccination Equity Center at the Expo coordinated with community-based organizations, businesses, schools, and faith community partners to host the mobile vaccination events. These organizations selected locations that are accessible to historically underserved priority populations including unhoused, Latinx, migrant and seasonal agricultural workers, wildfire survivors, and other communities needing extra support to access vaccination opportunities.
No appointment is necessary. The Vaccination Equity Center and all mobile vaccination events are safe places, accessible to all, regardless of legal status. Language interpreters and support for people with disabilities are available. Telephonic language interpreting and on-site Spanish interpreters are available. Real-time American Sign Language (ASL) interpreting services are available through on-demand Video Remote Interpreting (VRI) on personal phone or on-site devices.
