The importance of doing this is ending the fear in the workplace, said Vice Chair Joe Mullins. People are scared to go back to work, which has caused a shortage of labor.

Flagler County started hosting clinics at local restaurants and businesses last week, which were a success, according to Bob Snyder, health officer at the Florida Department of Health - Flagler. We went to businesses like Finn’s and Tortuga’s in Flagler Beach; continued our partnerships with Parkview Church and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church; and operated a drive-thru after-hours site two nights off Airport Road, Snyder said. Next week, we are adding new sites like the Palm Coast Community Center, AdventHealth Palm Coast and the Coquina Coast Brewing Company. This is all part of our plan to bring vaccinations to closer to where people live and work so we can reach community immunity as soon as possible.”
