WHEELING As week three of the COVID-19 vaccine rolls on to close out 2020, nursing homes and other long-term care facilities are distributing the vaccine to their staff and residents.
At the Good Shepherd Nursing Home and Welty Home, in Wheeling, Assistant Administrator Morgan Murphy reported a 76-percent vaccination rate among staff and residents, representing a total of just under 400 people.
Murphy said the remaining 24 percent largely consisted of staff who declined to receive the vaccine voluntarily, in addition to new hires who were not eligible to be inoculated. However, those who declined will be able to get their first dose once it comes time for those who did receive it to get their second dose.

Waldrum has suffered from circulation problems in his legs and this recent surgery was the end result. Adding to his woes, Waldrum recently lost his sister Mary Ann Walker, who was found dead in her Steubenville home on Dec. 9.
