LOWNDES COUNTY, Ga. (WTXL) â Georgia Department of Health South District leaders are preparing now to vaccinate at least 1,500 educators in Lowndes County.
South Health District communication director Courtney Sheeley says they began reaching out to superintendents and school nurses in their two largest districts last week. Here in the Lowndes County school system, they are close to 1,000 people in their district, said Sheeley. And then when you look at Valdosta City Schools, I believe theirs was somewhere between 4- and 500. So we re already looking at, just here in Lowndes County alone, just in our two largest public school systems, you re looking at about 1,500 people.
