Vermilion County Covid 19 update 5/6/21

We had our 2nd dose Moderna clinic yesterday here at VCHD and a Johnson and Johnson clinic today with just over 160 total doses administered over the last couple of day.
Tomorrow we will have a clinic at Salt Fork Junior High from 3pm-7pm.  Please visit our website to sign up or we will accept walk-ins. www.vchd.org<http://www.vchd.org>

We have a clinic scheduled at the Rescue Mission next week, so we hope to serve many of our homeless population at this clinic.  A huge thank you to the Rescue Mission for allowing us to have a clinic there.  We are still waiting on the EUA from Pfizer for those 12 years old and older.

I am also including an overview since last September of our positivity rates (blue is daily and red is 7-day rolling average).  We really would like to keep these levels low.
