LiveWell Finney County s COVID-19 testing and vaccine event in East Garden Village Thursday was a success.
Callie Dyer, executive director of LiveWell Finney County, said the event went really well, plenty of people turned out, got vaccines and got tested. We re very pleased with the turnout and with the comments that we re hearing, she said.
LiveWell had 500 shots to give out and 700 saliva COVID tests. The event was free and did not require any identification.
Dyer said the reason for the event is LiveWell s mission, health for all in the community. We want to be able to take stuff to the people and this is part of what we do. Not everybody has access, and being able to have access to care is real important to us, she said. One way for them to get access is to take it to them.
