SAN MARCOS, Texas (KXAN) — Hays County has allocated 6,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccine for a mass vaccination clinic on Texas State University's campus.
The clinic, running from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursday, is at the University Event Center, located at 106 Charles Austin Drive.
It's a joint effort between the Hays County Office of Emergency Management — led by Mike Jones — and Texas State.
Hays County Judge Ruben Becerra said they're making continuous efforts to target hard-to-reach populations to get them vaccinated.
According to Becerra, just before noon close to 1,000 vaccines had already been given out.
No appointments are needed to receive a COVID-19 vaccine at this clinic on Thursday.
This story will be updated after KXAN News at 6 p.m. by Reporter Jala Washington. She'll have a personal story from a student who felt called to get vaccinated on Thursday, more details about turnout and current demand for the COVID-19 vaccine.
