LA Unified mobile Covid-19 vaccination teams to launch on Monday

Los Angeles Unified on Monday will launch mobile Covid-19 vaccination clinics that will visit all middle and high schools in the district. Vaccines will be available to all district employees, who have been mandated to be fully vaccinated by Oct. 15, and students ages 12 and older.

The mobile teams will visit each middle and high school campus at least twice to administer both the first and second doses of the vaccine. Any students ages 12 to 15 must have an adult present when receiving the vaccine, and students 16 and older may either have an adult present or have a signed consent form.

At least 6,500 students and about 1,000 employees have missed one or more days of class after testing positive for Covid-19 or being in close contact with someone who tested positive.
