CADIZ The Harrison County Health Department will begin to administer the county’s first round of Moderna COVID-19 vaccines by early next week.
Garen Rhome, administrator of the health department, said the department received 100 doses of the vaccine Monday morning. The vaccine will be administered to the county’s health care workers, county home staff and residents, paramedics and some of the health department staff, including the public health nurses.
