Those seeking a vaccine can walk up or drive-thru without making an appointment.
"We continue to see tremendous growth in our vaccination numbers," Mayor Robert Garcia said in a statement. "By increasing non-appointment availability options and making it even easier to receive a vaccine, we hope to see those numbers go up even more."
