Umatilla County Public Health released an update on the COVID-19 vaccine on Tuesday, Dec. 22, stating that the vaccine has arrived in the county in âvery limited amounts.â
Due to the limited amount, it will be distributed in phases, based on Oregonâs schedule for the vaccine. Front-line health care workers, who care for patients with COVID-19, are first in line.
âIt will be several months before COVID-19 vaccine is available to the general public,â the release stated.
The health department asked that people refrain from calling their offices with questions about their vaccine eligibility, and instead look for updates on the vaccination page of the department’s website at ucohealth.net/main/COVID-19%20Vaccination%20Webpage.pdf.
