How to Find a COVID-19 Vaccine: 19 Places in SF
Crowdsourced dashboard helps Californians find available vaccines
Now, the community-driven organization has over 300 volunteers working toward the goal to help get Californians vaccinated.
The volunteers lend their time to help Californians learn accurate, up-to-date, verified information about the coronavirus vaccine, so they they can learn when they will be eligible and how to take their place in line.
The team calls medical professionals at hundreds of potential vaccination sites daily, asking them if they have the vaccine and if so to whom they will administer it to and how to get an appointment.

San Francisco’s Department of Health and Supervisor Matt Haney announced that San Francisco’s first “mass” vaccine distribution site will be opening on Friday, January 21, 2021 at CCSF’s Ocean Campus on Frida Kahlo Way in partnership with UCSF, Dignity Health and One Medical.

As more vaccine becomes available, SF’s healthcare providers & SFDPH will increase capacity at the City College site and open additional high volume vaccine sites.
Vaccines will also be available at community clinics, pharmacies, pop-up vaccination sites, and mobile sites as vaccine supply increases.
CCSF is the first of three planned “mass” vaccination sites in San Francisco. Moscone Center in SoMa and the San Francisco Wholesale Produce Market in Bayview are also planned, but not opening date has been set yet.

Giants, 49ers A’s Stadiums Might Become Mass Vaccination Centers
Bay Area’s MLB, NFL and NHL teams have offered up their stadiums and arenas to potentially become mass vaccination sites
California is expanding its vaccination efforts, and Bay Area teams including the A’s, Giants, 49ers and Sharks have proposed the possibility that their stadiums become mass vaccination centers.
San Francisco Chronicle noted that the A’s and 49ers’ stadiums have large parking lots which could work well to handle a large turnout. The A’s have been in conversations with state and local officials to transform their parking lot at the Coliseum into a drive-through vaccination site.
Also, the 49ers’ team President Al Guido has also offered Levi’s Stadium as a vaccination site in a letter to the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors. His letter notes, “In collaboration with our partners, Levi’s Stadium offers a facility with the requisite technology to store vaccines, world-class security, and the capability to partner with public health professionals to administer vaccines.”
The Giants, as well, has offered to make its “ballpark facilities available in whatever way is needed” to help with the vaccination efforts. The Sharks joins fellow Bay Area teams in offering up the SAP Center as vaccine site.
Our stadiums would join Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles and Petco Park in San Diego which have already been approved for mass vaccination centers and are slated to open as early as next week. The hope is that these sites will help speed up California’s vaccination rate.
Check Out Tahoe’s New Majestic Outdoor NHL Ice Rink
NHL finally released a rendering of the new ice rink on the 18th hole at the Edgewood Tahoe Resort golf course in Lake Tahoe.
The League announced the two-game series, NHL Outdoors at Lake Tahoe, which will feature two regular-season games against the backdrop of the beautiful Sierra Nevada mountains.
Although there will be no fans present, the opportunity to play without a crowd led the league to choose a unique setting that wouldn’t otherwise be possible.
The game won’t be played actually on the lake, but on a regulation rink that will be built on the 18th fairway on the shoreline. They’ll even be locker rooms that feel like wooden cabins and a retro scoreboard.
On Saturday, February 20, Colorado Avalanche and Vegas Golden Knights will face off, and on Sunday, February 21, the Boston Bruins and Philadelphia Flyers will take the ice.
