We get our vaccines from Contra Costa County. Vaccines are being distributed by the state to county health departments. County health departments are then distributing some of the vaccines to hospitals to provide some of the vaccinations. The number of vaccines we receive from the County is dependent on the supply the County receives from the State. The State provides vaccines to the county based on the supply received from the Federal Government.
We have set up vaccine clinics devoted to COVID-19 vaccines. Vaccinations are being given by appointment only. This is to ensure that we only schedule as many appointments as we have vaccine supply for. We are not currently giving COVID-19 vaccines in our physician offices.
If you scheduled a vaccination appointment through your MyChart account, the location for your vaccine is included in your appointment details found in your MyChart account. Follow these steps to view your appointment details:
You don’t need to wait to hear from John Muir Health. It’s most important to us that you get the vaccine -- no matter the location.
If you get an opportunity to be vaccinated somewhere else, such as a county or state location or pharmacy, please take it. All vaccination sites have one or both of the two currently approved vaccines for COVID-19.
There are various locations in Contra Costa County and Alameda County where people who are eligible may be vaccinated.

We will be offering vaccinations to all our patients, regardless of where you live. Vaccines are being offered in phases to different groups, consistent with state and county guidelines. We encourage you to check your local County Health Department's website for any additional information on vaccinations.
We are working closely with Contra Costa County to get as many vaccines as we can at this time. Vaccine supply is limited nation-wide. The number of available appointments we are offering is determined by the amount of vaccine doses the County can allocate to us, which may fluctuate. The County is actively working with us to ensure that we have enough supplies to offer the vaccine to our patients. We are only opening enough appointment slots to accommodate the number of vaccines we have available.
We are not using expired vaccines.
Yes! We have a COVID-19 hotline with recorded information: (925) 952-2300. We update this hotline as frequently as we have new information. It is the same information that we publish on our website.
We greatly appreciate your patience as we continue to care for our community while also offering the vaccine to our patients based on state and county guidelines and the doses allocated to us. We are heartened by the great interest in receiving the vaccine as it is the most effective way to end the pandemic.
