As the snow melts off local roadways, the local COVID-19 vaccine effort is ramping up once again.
On Wednesday, the Missouri Delta Medical Center is holding a vaccine clinic for those needing their first Moderna vaccine. The clinic will take appointments from those in Phase 1B-Tier 2, which are high-risk individuals protecting those who are at increased risk for severe illness and anyone aged 65 and older.
Adults with the following conditions qualify: cancer, chronic kidney disease, COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), Intellectual and/or developmental disabilities such as Down syndrome, heart conditions such as heart failure, coronary artery disease (CAD) or cardiomyopathies, immunocompromised state from solid organ transplant, severe obesity, pregnancy, sickle cell disease or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

DAVENPORT, Iowa When it comes to the COVID-19 vaccines, it s fast becoming a case of don t call us, we ll call you. We here at UnityPoint would ask that you wait to hear from us, said the hospital system s clinic operations director, Tricia Fisher. As soon as we make contact with those patients we mark down their status so that we don t have repeat phone calls, so we know the patients that have declined, those that have scheduled, those that have maybe already received it in other locations, she added.
