District 2 Public Health to provide vaccine to emergency workers
Just days after the first seven healthcare workers at Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville received the COVID-19 vaccine, District 2 Public Health began vaccinating emergency medical personnel.
District 2 Public Health received nearly 1,000 doses of the coronavirus vaccine and is holding a clinic for emergency personnel at Chicopee Woods Agricultural Center today and tomorrow beginning at 8 a.m. Appointments are required for the clinic.
Additional doses of the vaccine are expected at both NGMC and the public health department, but further details are unknown.
