The Nodaway County Health Department has been advised by legal counsel to refrain from aiding school districts in contact tracing and quarantine orders following Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt’s letters
Less than a week ago Nodaway County Health Administrator Tom Patterson was unsure if the county would receive any COVID-19 vaccines. But after getting the latest shipment of a little more than 500 Pfizer vaccines, health care workers administered every dose at a mass clinic Jan. 26.
Mosaic Medical Center - Maryville, the Nodaway County Health Department and the University partnered to host a COVID-19 mass vaccination clinic from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Carl and Cheryl Hughes Fieldhouse.
Although the University did not open until 11 a.m. due to snowfall, the vaccine clinic upheld its original hours.
âWe really wanted to make sure the show went on here because it was for the greater good of the community,â President of Mosaic Medical Center - Maryville Nate Blackford said.
