SAN DIEGO–A new COVID-19 vaccination superstation is scheduled to open on Feb. 12 at the Del Mar Fairgrounds.

The drive-up and walk-up site, operated by Scripps Health, will be open Friday through Sunday and can ramp up to deliver 5,000 doses daily. Appointments are required.

The COVID-19 vaccination site in San Marcos is now immunizing seniors 65 years of age and older, especially those who do not have access to a computer or someone to assist them.

When fully operational, the site will be offering about 500 doses daily from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. The clinic is located at 1706 Descanso Ave. in San Marcos and requires appointments which can only be made by calling 2-1-1 San Diego. The San Marcos clinic will be open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., including holidays.

The clinic is a public-private effort between the Gary and Mary West Foundation, West PACE, the Gary and Mary West Senior Dental Center, West Health, the County of San Diego, City of San Marcos and 211 San Diego.

If you are not able to schedule the second dose appointment at the time you scheduled or received your first, you should get an email on how to schedule your second dose within five days of the due date.

If you don’t get the email five days before your due date, you can complete a form with 2-1-1 San Diego, so that they can schedule your second appointment.
