Weekly update on COVID-19 vaccinations from the Harvey County Health Department:
◾️ As of earlier this week, the Health Department has provided first-dose vaccinations to nearly 2,500 people (with several more that were on the schedule for today). That doesn't include vaccinations by other providers in the county, so the number of people vaccinated is larger than that. Along with our partners, we're making steady progress in Harvey County.
The Health Department is expecting to receive a distribution of 600 first doses of Moderna next week, as well as 600 booster doses to complete second-dose vaccinations.
◾️ We're still working through our waiting list of Harvey County residents 65 and older. There's still a little ways to go in this group, so if you're on our waiting list and haven't received your vaccination, hang with us. We'll call to schedule your appointment as we receive additional vaccine.
If you're a Harvey County resident 65 and older and aren't on our waiting list but would like to be, you can:

◾️ We're still in Phase Two of the State's COVID-19 Vaccination Plan. As mentioned, our main focus continues to be those 65 and older. We're also conducting vaccinations for congregate settings such as emergency shelters, homeless shelters, and senior living and adult care homes that weren't included in Phase One.
We've completed or scheduled vaccinations for individuals that wanted vaccinations in the following groups in Phases One and Two: Healthcare-associated Workers, EMS, Law Enforcement, First Responders, and K-12 Employees. Anyone included in these groups that has not yet been vaccinated remains eligible to do so.
