âThe (Wisconsin Department of Health Services) is working extremely hard in a very challenging time to get the vaccine out across the state,â Dr. Michael Morrey of Mayo Clinic Health System said during a press conference Friday, co-helmed by Dr. Raj Naik of Gundersen Health System.

Both staffing and information systems have complicated vaccine distribution to all areas of the state, issues which DHS is working âexpeditiouslyâ on, says Morrey, who expects an update within the next couple days. As for when the vaccine may arrive locally, Morrey says, âI suspect it will be very soon.â
The hold up, Naik says, should not be interpreted as an issue of safety or reason for distrust, noting the process as a whole, from application to procurement to administration of the vaccine, âis going to be the largest public health endeavor in our lifetimes...this is extraordinarily complex and there will be challenges ahead.â
