Gov. Cox is pushing local health departments to vaccinate as quickly as possible and use all of the doses they have each week. Local officials say they have the capacity to deliver three times as many vaccines as they are receiving.

The Summit County Health Department is asking residents to enter their contact information into an online database that officials will use to contact people when it’s time for them to be vaccinated, part of the county’s unprecedented effort to administer tens of thousands of vaccine doses to protect the community from COVID-19.
“The list will be used to notify individuals when vaccine registration opens,” spokesperson Derek Siddoway wrote in an email to The Park Record. “… Our goal is to make the vaccine available and accessible to any resident who wishes to receive it in the coming months.”
