As of this week, over 60% of Nevada County adults have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine. With vaccine availability more widespread and local demand dwindling, the Nevada County Public Health Department is planning to reduce hours at the Whispering Pines clinic throughout the month of July.
“The clinic has been a great tool to vaccinate a lot of people quickly, but we believe we’ve served everyone we can with this model,” said Public Health Director Jill Blake in a news release. “It’s time to shift our focus and energy to reaching those who may not have the time, resources, or ability to come out to a vaccination site.”
