On Feb. 12, it was announced that the Department of Public Health will no longer send first doses of the COVID-19 vaccine to hospitals and health systems but rather redirect them to mass vaccination sites, pharmacies and other community distributors. As a result, locations that residents rely on for local vaccinations, such as Dartmouth High School, are no longer receiving shipments of the vaccine. After the state launched its outreach initiative that will target 20 of the hardest hit communities in Massachusetts, Dartmouth learned they were not on the list. With a successful vaccination clinic eliminated, and surrounding SouthCoast cities receiving extra vaccine resources to help residents, Dartmouth now only has the Circuit City mass vaccination site.
