As we have explained in news stories this week, all slots for today’s COVID-19 vaccination clinic in Ohio County for residents 80 and older are full.
The Wheeling-Ohio County Health Department on Tuesday said some residents reported receiving a text message claiming they did not need an appointment for today’s clinic, which is being held at the health department.
That message is false.
The reality is there is a limited supply of COVID-19 vaccine available right now. Ohio County was alloted 100 doses for this clinic, and a portion of those doses already went to residents at two local facilities that house older residents.
