City schedules next vaccine event

Jan. 25, 2021

Garland Public Health has another shipment of 1,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccine and will administer those Thursday, Jan. 28, at Homer B. Johnson Stadium to persons atop its waitlist. The event will utilize the same drive-thru format as last week’s event.

The event is by notification only. Vaccination will not be made available to walk up customers. Those who registered to the waitlist first are receiving invitations to the event and will be asked to provide a unique identification number made available only to them.

The vaccine is being administered to those who meet the state’s Phase 1A and 1B criteria in the order they registered with Garland Public Health.

All who meet Phase 1A and 1B eligibility criteria can register for the vaccine being administered by Garland Public Health. There are many licensed providers of the vaccine and Garland Public Health recommends you register wherever you may be eligible, as well as our list.

Please call 972-205-3900 or email GPH@GarlandTx.gov to remove your name from our list if you receive the vaccine elsewhere so that we may move on to vaccinate the next person on our list.

Phase 1A and 1B individuals are eligible to receive a vaccine at a Texas vaccination hub regardless of where they reside.

  • Phase 1A: Front-line health care workers and residents at long-term care facilities
  • Phase 1B: People over 65 or with a chronic medical condition that puts them at increased risk for severe illness from COVID 19
