Shelby County Health Department Director Dr. Alisa Haushalter said she wants local hospitals to be part of the public vaccine rollout.
Haushalter said the first step is figuring out how to get hospitals more of the county’s weekly allocation of 11,900 doses.
She’ll meet with hospital administrators about that Friday. Haushalter said, “We have to get those doses widely distributed and we the health department can’t be the primary provider of the vaccine. We want it to be like the flu vaccine where you can get it at the pharmacy or hospital.”
