Des Moines County supervisors Thomas Broeker, chair, Jim Cary and Shane McCampbell met Tuesday to hear the latest COVID numbers and got some good news relative to all of 2020 from DMC public health director Christa Poggemiller. We re rolling out the vaccine, Poggemiller said.
She said as of Sunday 1,162 DMC residents were vaccinated for a DMC total of 1,537; out-of-county health workers and others who qualify are included in the overall total even though they don t live here. We gave more vaccines yesterday, so we anticipate that number will be higher come tomorrow, Poggemiller said, announcing that COVID vaccination numbers are now available online at coronavirus.iowa.gov and are updated Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
