Ana -- who's eligible for the next round of shots?

Anyone over the age of 18 who lives here in shasta county are able to get the vaccine at the tribal health center.

But for now -- spots are already full.

There are already 25 people on a waitlist.

Spots filled up within 3 to 4 hours of the phone lines being open.

The redding rancheria says, it received 170 calls in the first hour alone!

When we looked at as a tribal organizations we saw the majority of our patients that were covid positive were between 20 and 40.

And that population is going around visiting our elders, they're visiting their families so that best thing to do was to vaccinate as many people as possible // any place that can open and get us all vaccinated, the safer we're all going to be in the long run // i think it's great that they're doing that and making that effort for the public sunday's clinic will be administering the the clinic runs from 8:30 a-m to 4:30 p-m.

People who get their first shot on sunday, will then schedule their second shot.
