(Travis County, TX) – Today, the Central Texas Counties Vaccine Collaborative announced it will not require appointments this weekend for its drive-thru clinic at Circuit of The Americas (COTA). Anyone age 16 and above will qualify to get their free first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. The consent of a parent or guardian is required for anyone aged 16 or 17 to get a shot, and the parent or guardian must be present and in the vehicle when they arrive at COTA for their vaccine.

“While there is still a lot of hard work to be done, this weekend will get us one step closer to where anyone who wants a vaccine can get a vaccine,” said Travis County Judge Andy Brown. “I remain committed to making certain our hardest hit populations get their vaccine quickly, efficiently, and equitably. If you can make it to COTA this weekend, now is the time to get your vaccine.”
