COVID-19 Vaccine Clinic Scheduled for 1,800 First Doses of Moderna and 2,000 Second Doses of Pfizer

Guadalupe Regional Medical Center, Guadalupe County and the City of Seguin will administer COVID-19 vaccines this week at the Seguin Coliseum, 950 S. Austin, Seguin Texas. 1,800 first doses of the Moderna vaccine will be given from 1 pm to 7 pm on Wednesday, April 14 and 2,000 Pfizer second doses will be administered from 9 am to 5 pm on Thursday, April 15 for those who received their first Pfizer dose on Thursday, March 25, 2021.

All COVID-19 vaccines are free of charge and available by appointment only.

Who is Eligible for Vaccination Now: All individuals ages 18 and older qualify for the Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) and Moderna vaccines. Individuals 16 and older are eligible to receive the Pfizer vaccine.

Appointments for vaccines will be made utilizing the COVID-19 Vaccine Waitlist. You can sign up for the waitlist by visiting the following link: http://www.Seguintexas.gov/covidvaccine. Once you are on the waitlist, you will receive an email from Eventbrite when a vaccine appointment becomes available. You will have 12 hours to respond to the email and set your appointment.

Those without computer, internet access or an email address can call (830) 386-2219 and leave a message for assistance with signing up for the waitlist.

The vaccine waitlist closes periodically as it becomes full, but re-opens as individuals on the waitlist receive their vaccines. When this occurs, a notification will be posted on the COVID-19 vaccine webpage on the City of Seguin’s website, as well as on the City of Seguin Government Facebook page.

Vaccine Brand and Scheduling: The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) states that the Pfizer, Moderna, and Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) vaccines are not interchangeable with each other. Vaccines will be scheduled in the order of the number assigned to the person on the waiting list based on vaccine availability. As more vaccines become available through allocations from the State, we will continue to assign appointment times by order of the waitlist without regard to vaccine manufacturer. If you miss an appointment you will have to sign back up on the wait list.

Be Prepared: Persons arriving to the Coliseum for their vaccine will need to bring their State issued photo identification. Participants must wear a face mask, be screened, and practice social distancing. Please bring your immunization card if you are receiving your second Moderna dose. Please Note: Appointments cannot be transferred to other family members.

To cancel an appointment or have questions about second dose appointment reschedules, call 830- 303-8856 or email COVID19@co.guadalupe.tx.
