Information about flu vaccinations in the Bay Area – for both seasonal and H1N1/”swine” flu – is available in more than 150 languages by simply dialing 2-1-1.
Your local 2-1-1 call center can answer questions, such as:
- Where is the vaccine available in my county?
- Who is eligible to receive the vaccine? (Eligibility varies by county and provider.)
Residents who can’t dial 2-1-1 can call 800-273-6222 to reach the 2-1-1 call center in their area. For the hearing impaired, dial 415-808-4440 (TTY) or 7-1-1.
Launched throughout the Bay Area in February 2008, 2-1-1 is an easy-to-remember, toll-free phone number that connects callers with local community services, such as food, shelter, counseling, employment assistance, quality child care and more. 2-1-1 is available in Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, Santa Clara, Solano and Sonoma Counties.
