The weekly data released on Thursday shows 127,606 jabs between December 8 and January 31 – up by 40,206 on last week.
The data doesn’t include the new vaccination centre at the Lincolnshire Showground opened on Tuesday, which aims to do over 1,000 doses a day.
The Showground centre is the second largest in the county, with the one at Princess Arena Sports Centre in Boston able to handle over 1,500 vaccines per day.
The clinics will not interfere with the Husker game and vice versa.
What if it snows?
If it does snow Friday and we can’t get to our appointment what do we do?
Channel 8 is looking into this now.
How do we schedule an appointment for the Friday or Saturday clinic?
Will the health department be contacting Lancaster County residents who are 80+? Or do we call them to schedule an appointment?
The Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department (LLCHD) will be calling all eligible residents Tuesday. If you are eligible, but missed the call or haven’t received one yet, reach out to LLCHD at (402) 441-4200.
