TOP STORY OF THE DAY Brought to you FREE by WICU: COVID-19 vaccine rollout underway; unavailable to public until January
Tuesday, December 22, 2020
As a COVID-19 vaccine rolls out in Indiana, the first to get it will be frontline healthcare workers.
Clay County Health Nurse Kim Hyatt said it would be a while before vaccinations are made public, with expectations that the process could begin in January.
(The current vaccination) is not for the public, said Hyatt. This is just for healthcare workers.
Hyatt said two Terre Haute hospitals received vaccine doses, with Clay County yet to be scheduled.
We are working on plans for when the vaccine arrives, said Hyatt. January is for the public; at least that is what the Indiana State Department of Health is telling us now.
