Vermilion County Covid 19 update 4/22/21

Today was our last clinic at DACC.  We administered 245 doses today.  We would like to thank Dr. Nacco and all his staff and their generosity for allowing us to have numerous clinics at the community college.  We administered almost 2,000 doses at DACC during our 10 clinics there.  We would also like to thank the Danville Police Department for their help with security at our DACC site as well.   We also had our 2nd clinic at St. Mary’s in Westville and administered 137 doses.  This gave us a total of 382 doses administered today. 

 

We will be at the Vermilion Regional Airport tomorrow thru Saturday, from 8-3.  This will be our last 3 clinics at the airport and our last drive thru opportunities at this time.   We are really slowing down with doses given to Vermilion County residents.  Please continue to encourage our community to take advantage of the vaccinations opportunities that we have.
