NORWOOD, Ohio â Hamilton County Public Health is moving its COVID-19 vaccine clinic to the Hamilton County Board of Elections Early Vote Center on Friday.
During Wednesdayâs briefing, Hamilton County Commissioner Denise Driehaus said the county had already leased extra space to allow for early voting amid the pandemic, so officials are now using the space to accommodate vaccine distribution.
Director of Elections Sherry Poland said she and her team are happy to help provide a convenient site for the vaccine. The space, which has more than 15,000 square feet, has 100 parking spaces and is accessible by a number of bus routes. About 80,000 residents voted early at the center, so a number of people will be familiar with the location, Poland said.
When to get vaccinated if you ve already had COVID-19
Health experts say you can wait at least 90 days after getting COVID-19 to get the vaccine. Waiting can help others in your community get the vaccine who need it sooner.

If the vaccine is available to you right now but you ve had COVID-19 within the last 90 days, should you still get the shot right away?
Dr. Stephen Feagins, medical director of Hamilton County Public Health, said you re naturally protected for at least 90 days after getting COVID-19. If you want to wait, perhaps to let others go ahead, you can,â Feagins said.
