LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — Thanks to increased vaccine supply, Sutter Health said it has more availability and they are scheduling thousands of vaccination appointments throughout Northern California.

Additionally, Sutter Health is now accepting appointments for those 12 to 15 years old to receive the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, which was granted emergency use authorization earlier this week by the FDA.

Children ages 12-17 can only receive the Pfizer vaccine with consent. A parent or guardian needs to accompany the child to their vaccine appointment or sign a consent form for the child to bring with them.

To schedule an appointment and for more information on the vaccines and what to expect on vaccination day, go to the website, www.sutterhealth.org/covid-vaccine.

Sutter Health has now administered more than three-quarters of a million vaccine doses at various sites, as well as clinics in underserved neighborhoods through partnerships with community organizations.
