Central Texas is far from herd immunity for COVID-19, and public health officials are urging everyone who can to get vaccinated.

Most sites are now giving away first doses without an appointment, though some are offering reserved appointments as well.

Here's where you can go this weekend to get a shot.

Delco Activity Center

Austin Public Health is running its vaccination site at the Delco Activity Center on Saturday.

As of this week, it's now a walk-up site, so anyone 18 or older looking to get a dose of the Moderna vaccine can do so between noon and 8 p.m. If you can't make it this weekend, the site is open from Tuesday through Saturday from noon to 8 p.m.

The Delco Center is located at 4601 Pecan Brook Dr.

Circuit of the Americas

Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays and Travis counties are continuing their drive-thru vaccination site at Circuit of the Americas this weekend.

Folks 16 or older can go to the site without an appointment to receive a dose of the Pfizer vaccine. Sixteen- and 17-year-olds must have consent from a parent or guardian.

The site is also reserving some shots specifically for service industry workers. If you're in service, you can pre-register for an appointment.

The drive-thru is open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday.

The Walmart at Southpark Meadows is hosting a walk-up vaccination clinic Sunday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Austin City Council members Vanessa Fuentes and Ann Kitchen are sponsoring the clinic. Anyone 16 or older will be eligible to get vaccinated.
