FAIRMONT â An abandoned storefront in the Meadowbrook Mall will soon be transformed into a COVID-19 vaccination mega-site.
WVU Medicine United Hospital Center, in conjunction with the Harrison County Health Department and Community Care of West Virginia, will open the former Elder-Beerman clothing store near Target on Feb. 10 where potentially thousands of doses of vaccines can be administered per day.
âThe hospital works closely with all the local health departments,â said Michael Tillman, president and CEO of UHC. âThe health departments and UHC wanted to have the capability to do large numbers of vaccines should we have that available. If you donât plan now and it becomes available, youâre sitting there without a plan.â
