District 2 Public Health Departments are working with community partners to move COVID-19 vaccine clinics to larger spaces.
According to a press release from District 2 Public Health, this move will allow the vaccination of both the first and second doses at a single location.
“Having a larger space than the health departments, will also give us flexibility to vaccinate more people each day, especially when [the] vaccine becomes more readily available,” said Zachary Taylor, M.D., District Health Director in a prepared statement.
Appointments will still be required to get vaccinated at the new clinic sites. Essential services such as immunizations for school, women’s health services and communicable disease services will be available at the health departments.
