**COVID-19 Vaccines**
The COVID-19 vaccines have been proven to be safe and effective and are now widely available for everyone age 16 and older. They are currently being administered for free through various vaccination centers, as well as major retail pharmacies such as Rite Aid, CVS and Walgreens.
To find out how you can receive the COVID-19 vaccine, visit the LA County’s Public Health Department’s COVID-19 vaccine webpage:
http://publichealth.lacounty.gov/media/Coronavirus/vaccine/index.htm
You can also book an appointment for the COVID vaccine using this website:
https://myturn.ca.gov
**COVID-19 Testing**
If you want or need a rapid COVID-19 test, the pediatrician with whom I share office space is now doing same-day rapid COVID-19 antigen tests. Results available in 15 minutes. If you or anyone you know is interested, her website is https://www.yulimd.com.
If you don't need a same-day test or if you want to get a free COVID-19 test, then visit the Los Angeles County Department of Health website to find local test sites:
https://covid19.lacounty.gov/testing/
**COVID-19 and Acute Care Visits**
If you are having a medical concern or problem, please book a "Telehealth Visit" for medical problems that can be taken care of either by phone or video call. If the problem appears to require an in-person visit, I can convert the appointment to an in-office visit. If you are not sure if a problem is suitable for a Telehealth Visit, you can send me an e-mail before booking an appointment.
**COVID-19 and Preventive Health Visits**
Because of the decreased number of local COVID-19 cases, I am now scheduling visits for routine checkups/physicals again. You can book an appointment for a Routine Physical Exam or Well Child Visit using the online appointment scheduler.

Coronavirus (COVID-19)
The novel coronavirus, officially known as COVID-19, is a potential health threat to everyone around the world.
For most people, an infection with COVID-19 will either cause mild cold/flu-like symptoms or no symptoms at all. However, there are some people who are at higher risk of serious complications from a COVID-19 infection: the elderly; those with serious health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, lung disease, cancer; those who are immunocompromised. Even if you are not in a high-risk group, you can still develop serious illness or even die from it, or you may transmit it to someone who is vulnerable so that is why EVERYONE needs to be careful to avoid infection.
Even if you have been vaccinated for COVID-19, it is not 100% guaranteed to prevent infection. To help prevent the spread of infection and protect those who are at high-risk, everyone should continue to practice social distancing and wear a mask covering their nose and mouth whenever they are around others. This is the best way to protect everyone from infection.
