The Columbia/Boone Public Health and Human Services Department hosted its first walk-in only vaccination clinic for rural areas Wednesday.
The health department, in partnership with the Missouri National Guard, vaccinated 95 people at its walk-in clinic in Centralia Wednesday.
Ashton Day, the health educator for Columbia/Boone County Public Health and Human Services, says this is the department's first time doing a strictly walk-in only clinic. It hopes that the relaxed restrictions in order to get a vaccine dose will provide more convenience and encourage residents to come out and get vaccinated.
