Now it just needs more vaccine from the state.
County officials Monday unveiled a new mass vaccination site at the former Wings of Eagles Discovery Center on the Elmira Corning Regional Airport property in Big Flats.
The sprawling former museum complex has been set up to vaccinate as many as 1,000 people a day, and is laid out and clearly marked to create a constant flow of foot traffic in one direction to help maintain social distancing.
The facility will replace the existing county-run vaccination site at the Arctic League headquarters on West Clinton Street in Elmira, said County Executive Christopher Moss.
The Chemung County Health Department has launched #HealthyChemung and #MyWhyChemung, two online campaigns that support disease prevention and promoting healthy communities.
