These numbers only relate to the city’s health department and do not account for vaccines that have been shipped to hospital systems such as Sutter Health, Kaiser and Dignity Health. The total number of doses delivered to the entire San Francisco health system (including the city and those other hospital systems) is 102,825 doses.
According to SF Gate, the city is in charge of administering vaccines to workers at SF General Hospital, EMTs and other frontline workers as well as those 65 and over within the SF Health Network which primarily serves patients without insurance.
San Francisco is moving full speed ahead on vaccinations.

Our entire system in SF has received 102,825 doses. There are more than 210,000 people in Tier 1A in San Francisco, all of whom need to receive two doses.
We simply need more vaccines.
I’m optimistic that with the new administration, we’ll see more urgent progress. pic.twitter.com/En5uSpjd3D
