SPOKANE, Wash. The Washington State Department of Health (DOH) will soon take the lead in operating a mass COVID-19 vaccine clinic at the Spokane Arena after it opened under the direction of CHAS Health.
More than 10,000 people have already been vaccinated against coronavirus at the site since it opened on Wednesday, Jan. 27. CHAS was identified to lead operations at the clinic after Gov. Jay Inslee s announcement about one week before its opening since the company already had plans in place for the Arena. The health care company has received assistance from the DOH and Washington National Guard members from the beginning.
