WINONA, Minn. (KWNO)-Winona County Public Health will hold an appointment-only COVID-19 vaccine clinic on Thursday, April 15.
The clinic takes place from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the East End Rec. Center in Winona. It’s open to all Winona County residents and workers ages 18 and older.
Health officials are asking those interested in getting a shot to make sure they’re available for their second dose on May 13. Winona County Emergency Management Coordinator Ben Klinger says the federal allocation to Minnesota was lowered but the county still got 800 doses for this week thanks to 600 doses being rerouted to Winona County from a northwestern Minnesota county.

LA CROSSE, Wis. (KWNO)- Meteorologists with the National Weather Service La Crosse are warning residents of an elevated fire risk. Â
They say forecasted warm temperatures, low humidity, and gusty winds can cause any fire to spread quickly. The DNR says Winona County is in the high-risk category for a fire to spread. Â
Residents of Winona and surrounding counties must acquire a burning permit before torching any debris. Residents can still have bonfires but are advised to practice fire safety tips. Â
âIf you have a recreational fire, make sure you keep it in a fire pit or something similar. Always have a water source handy so if it gets too big you can put that fire out before it spreads,â said Winona County Emergency Management Coordinator Ben Klinger. Â
