County Health Leaders Pleased To See Vaccine Supply Increasing

March 16, 2021 The COVID-19 vaccination effort in Berrien County is ramping up. Speaking during a Tuesday update, Spectrum Health Lakeland CEO Loren Hamel said the supply is improving. “The vaccine is becoming more plentiful,” Hamel said. “As you heard, President Biden suggests we’re going to have enough for everybody in May. I hope that transpires without a glitch. It looks like we’re getting much more in the next few weeks than we had in the last few weeks. We long for that.” Hamel said you should get whatever vaccine you can, whether it’s Moderna, Pfizer, or Johnson & Johnson. Berrien County Health Officer Nicki Britten said there are more providers of the shots coming online, now including some Walgreen’s stores.
