DeKalb Adds COVID-19 Mobile Vaccination Stops

DEKALB COUNTY, GA — DeKalb County is adding four mobile vaccination unit stops to its rotation as public health officials warn of low hospital capacity and rising COVID-19 cases.

The additional stops will take place on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays on a rotating basis through Sept. 15. COVID-19 vaccinations at these sites are available on a walk-up basis. In the event of inclement weather, the mobile stop will be canceled for the day.
