From: City Of Corpus Christi

On Wednesday, March 1, the COVID-19 Vaccine Clinic at La Palmera will relocate to the Corpus Christi-Nueces County Public Health District (CCNPHD) at 1702 Horne Road. Residents will have the opportunity to walk in and receive the COVID-19 vaccine at no cost.

The COVID-19 Vaccine Clinic will be open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and close from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. Residents can call to set up a drive-thru appointment if they cannot get out of their cars.

Relocating the vaccine clinic to the main CCNCPHD building will allow for a refocus of the public health strategy by promoting complete series of vaccinations through satellite vaccine clinics with any Nueces County employer, organization, business, non-profit, or group.

“We have seen fewer people come to our off-site clinic to receive the COVID-19 vaccine,” Dr. Fauzia Khan, Director of Public Health, said. “We will restructure our efforts to be more proactive and work with our community partners to offer services and send a team to vaccinate at their location - at no cost and without employees requesting time off.”

Home-bound residents can still request the vaccine to be administered at their home by calling 311 and setting up an appointment.  

Nueces County residents who live in rural areas can receive the COVID-19 vaccine at the Public Health Satellite Clinic in Robstown, 701 East Main, on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The clinic is closed for lunch from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.
