“We are very pleased with the progress made in getting our communities vaccinated with the allotted vaccine supplies we’ve been given,” stated Kevin Hughes, Health Officer for DHD#10. “Looking ahead, we are hoping vaccine supplies increase to allow for larger mass vaccination site clinics. In anticipation of this, we have begun initial planning for larger clinics and will share more information as the process moves forward.” 
 
This week, DHD#10 is hosting primarily first-dose and some second-dose clinics for the priority groups throughout our ten-county jurisdiction.
Vaccine clinics are by appointment only – please no walk-ins. If people do not show up for their scheduled appointments, DHD#10 has a stand-by list made up of people on our waiting lists to call in so that no vaccine goes to waste.
If you are unable to make your scheduled appointment, please email us at covid@dhd10.org to let us know. You will be placed back on the waiting list and will be contacted as soon as we can get you rescheduled.  
 
We ask that you refrain from calling the health department to ask about scheduling the vaccine. Please go to our website at www.dhd10.org/coronovirus for more information.
