The City of Sarasota will host a drive-through, second-dose Covid-19 vaccination clinic this Saturday and Sunday, March 27-28, at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall. The clinic will be by appointment only for individuals who received their first dose Feb. 27-28 at the city-hosted vaccine distribution at the Van Wezel. Appointment notices are now being issued via the Everbridge system, Sarasota County’s first-come, first-serve vaccination standby list.

Individuals who have confirmed appointments for the clinic at the Van Wezel, 777 N. Tamiami Trail, can access the facility’s parking lot through the 10^th Street entrance during their scheduled appointment block and will be directed to the check-in area. Drivers should again bring their completed vaccine screening and consent form and a valid ID or proof of Florida residency. No walk-ups will be accepted at the drive-through clinic. Individuals who are ill or who have tested positive for Covid-19 should not come to the site. For questions and more information on registration or your Everbridge account number, contact the Sarasota County vaccine registration call center at 941-861-VAXS (8297). The call center is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. this Saturday and Sunday.
