Vaccine quantities vary, and scheduling is based on availability.

Individuals can also call the health department for more information at 270-887-4160 ext. 640. We understand that many of our senior population, 70+, do not have internet access and can sometimes feel as though they are not getting the latest information. We ask that community members share this information with senior agencies, churches, and other organizations who might serve our senior population to ensure they have access to vaccine information.
