Chesterfield Health District COVID-19 vaccine supply increases By Henry Graff | March 10, 2021 at 11:25 AM EST - Updated March 10 at 6:53 PM
RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT) - COVID-19 vaccine supply is finally increasing for the Chesterfield Health District. The weekly supply has gone from about 4,500 doses to about 10,000. That’s a game-changer for the district, which serves not only Chesterfield County but also Powhatan County and Colonial Heights.
“I think it’s more capacity-oriented. We certainly don’t want to create expectations that we can’t deliver on,” Dr. Alexander Samuel, Chesterfield Health District Director, said.
While the district is doing appointment-only clinics at Chesterfield fairgrounds, Dr. Samuel says they are sending a lot of vaccine supply to hospitals, doctors and pharmacies in that area.
