LAWTON, Okla. (TNN) - Thursday, leaders in southwest Oklahoma held a virtual town hall to answer questions about COVID-19 and how itâs currently affecting our community.
The virtual town hall lasted roughly an hour and touched on a variety of important issues, including the arrival of the COVID - 19 vaccine.
âThankfully weâre looking at having a significant amount of vaccine so itâs not going to be a case of where only 10,000 people in the state get the vaccine and we have to wait 6 months for the next shipment. The shipments are going to come about every two weeks,â said Brandie Combs with the Comanche County Health Department.
