AVERY COUNTY â The COVID-19 vaccine arrived in Avery County on Monday, Dec. 21, with 600 doses set to be administered by the Avery County Health Department as prioritized by the stateâs vaccination plan.
According to TRHD Director Diane Creek, the health district has begun immunizing those in the community who are most likely to be exposed to the virus as part of their job. The same process has begun taking place in Mitchell and Yancey counties as well, after Mitchell received 600 doses of the vaccine and Yancey received 500 doses last week.
âWe will focus on group 1A from the stateâs priority chart. That includes front line workers, Emergency Medical Services (EMS), people who are doing Covid testing, staff who are doing the vaccinating. We will only have three employees from Avery County Health Department who will receive the vaccine. The rest of our staff will wait for a later group,â Creek said.
