No new cases of COVID-19; center plans to shut down in June
E-T staff report
Erath County saw no new cases of COVID-19, but one additional death attributed to the virus this week, according to a report released Friday by county emergency management officials.
Erath County Vaccination Center officials announced recently that the center will no longer be offering first doses. The center will continue to provide second doses to those who received their first dose there. For more information, call (254) 459-5053.
At Tuesday's regular meeting of the Stephenville City Council, Fire Chief Jimmy Chew informed the council that plans are to shut down the center the first week of June, giving individuals enough time to make sure they receive their second dose. Those wanting to receive the vaccine, will still be able to through other pharmacies and healthcare facilities in the city.
