The Adair County Health Department announced Tuesday that the second round of COVID-19 vaccines will be issued Wednesday, Jan. 27, to targeted populations, not the general public.
The Health Department will administer these vaccines via a drive-through clinic from 10 a.m. to 5:45 p.m. at the NEMO Fair Grounds. The limited number of vaccines are reserved for remaining long-term care workers, hospital and healthcare workers, first responders, social services workers, teachers and staff in K-12 schools, childcare workers, communications and information technology workers, energy and utilities workers, public works workers, critical manufacturing workers and government workers.
