PSUSD hosts a series of clinics for COVID-19 vaccine and TDAP shot

Palm Springs Unified School District (PSUSD) teamed up with Desert Oasis Healthcare to offer students and their families an opportunity to get the COVID-19 vaccine, and also be inoculated with the shot that protects against whooping cough.

The immunization shot that protects against tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis (TDAP) is being offered for children of all ages. It is a requirement by all schools to have this shot.

School officials said while students are now back in the classroom, it's only giving its families a certain amount of time to get the shot before making it mandatory.

The COVID-19 vaccine is not mandatory for students but is recommended. Children 12 and older are able to currently get the shot.

PSUSD made it easier for families to have access to these shots by hosting clinics.

No insurance is needed. Those under 18-years-old must have a consent form signed before getting the shots.
