Ferret Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 Thank you. I did get in doing that but when I went through the steps and clicked on Vaccine Scheduling, they wanted an account number. Geez, they make it hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like CV and Walgreens, Walmart requires you to open an account on their website. Need an email and a password. Then you sign in, go to Pharmacy and search for Covid appointments by zip ode.

Ferret Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 The Mexican Consulate in San Diego is also doing covid vaccinations. It's right in the downtown core though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostlylost Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 Appointments are available in the San Diego area at most Walmarts all this week. Pfiser or Moderna depending on location. You could fly in in the AM and fly back in the PM the same day on Volaris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 That was the idea but I'm Canadian and can't cross the bridge right now. Americans cannot be refused entry to their own country. I'm Canadian and am considered non-essential. LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 Yes, I can but there is a huge difference in the cost of the flight and the time required to get there and back. Everyone's situation is different and I'm trying to do what works best for me. I like the weather in San Diego better than Texas as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No land entries for tourists I guess I should have know that but I have not paid much attention as I rarely go to the US but I may have to go there to get a Johnson & Johnson vaccination, as I have a trip booked to Portugal in October and they may not recognize my Sinovac vaccines. I have been doing some reading since. There are 5 types of vaccines for Covid. Mix & Match is still quite unknown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MexLuis Posted May 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 For me to be fully vac'd with Pfizer would take two doses/trips. I have a plan that can fill one of those, if someone whom lives in Lake Chapala does not step forward. I am not in a rush. Therefore, not fully examining flights at this point, though if I did a flight, it would be one where testing is required. Keeping my options open. My car is available for the drive. All types of vaccines available, though I am aiming for the Pfizer. I simply want to be vaccinated in advance of a (car travel) cross country trip in August. Accepting requests to drive with me later, and will consider trips all the way up through till the end of July. End of July being my cut off point.

Only essential travel into US by land is permitted at this time. Vaccination appointments are not considered essential travel. Canadians can not cross the border by land at this time. Only US citizens or Permanent residents or work permit holders may enter by land. May 21 is the next revision date. https://help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-1688?language=en_US Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyPanda Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 How exactly? Just like us they only have two choices: vote someone out, or protest. Since it ain't election time, and since only anti-maskers and anti-vaxxers ever protest... Meantime, what I read on the Web suggests many groups are voicing their concerns: all medical personnel, restaurant owners, bowling alleys, city parks... the list goes on and on.

MexLuis Posted May 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2021 Due to lack of driving buddies, I have decided to take a flight in/ out (same day/direct flight from Guad to US. All vacs available including J&J. Logistics completely worked out. Vaccination site is near the airport, as is an amazon locker hub to pick up a few goodies. Travel buddy not required for this, but others are welcome to join me. If interested PM me... Maybe I can help someone out as I have worked out all the details. DONE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jksc Posted May 7, 2021 Report Share Posted May 7, 2021 Sounds like a plan. Where in the US, did you need to book a vaccination appointment? Any help much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
