SUTHERLIN, Ore. Dozens of people got vaccinated in Sutherlin Thursday as Aviva Health held their ninth community vaccination clinic.
With no appointment necessary, staff said these smaller scale clinics aim to vaccinate people who have trouble accessing the vaccine otherwise.
Staff said these events have been very successful since they first started early last month.
“These events . we thought we’d see a drop off at the Sutherlin event, but we have just as many people here as we did a month ago,” said vice president of community health Christin Rutledge. “We do have some community partners that are not using as much vaccine, but that is to be expected as more people get the vaccine.”

PORTLAND, Ore. Away from Oregon’s big cities, getting COVID shots to people often involves travel and persistence. We need to go out and have people show up at different events, said Shellie Campbell, interim public health director for North Central Public Health. We go to the school, we go to the senior center, we go to the clinics, we go wherever the people will come to so they can get the vaccine.
