Once again, please share!! There is absolutely no reason why our county should not be leading the pack with our % of population vaccinated, but instead we are closer to the bottom. After these clinics, we will be focusing more on the harder to reach populations here in the county. If we do not fill these spots, we will open them up to the rest of the state.
