JACKSON CO., Ore. Following Governor Kate Brown’s announcement of the state re-opening this Tuesday or Wednesday, locals are preparing to go back to pre-pandemic life.
As the vaccination clinic at the expo wraps up, Jackson County Public Health officials want people to know that vaccines aren’t just going to disappear.
In fact, they’ll be available at the Jackson County Public Health Clinic for free and they encourage people to come down.
“COVID remains a significant public health issue and public health is supported and funded by various sources,” said Jackson County Public Health Officer, Dr. Jim Shames. He says COVID-19 vaccines will still be readily available for people even after the state re-opens.
Klamath County residents have a 1 in nearly 41,000 chance.
Josephine County residents have a 1 in 55,000 chance.
In Curry County, your odds are 1 in 17,000.

“[There are] lots of chances to win if that’s what it takes to get folks to get their shot, that’s great. The risks of getting vaccinated are far less than the risk of getting COVID, even if you get the mild version of the disease,” said Jackson County Public Health Officer, Dr. Jim Shames.
The campaign is funded with $1.86 million dollars from the federal Coronavirus Relief Act.
