ANCHORAGE (AP) — The Anchorage Health Department has arranged two mobile clinics to provide coronavirus vaccinations specifically targeting members of Alaska s community of Pacific Islanders. The clinics scheduled on Tuesday and Thursday this week were the first targeting a specific community since the pandemic began, the Anchorage Daily News reported. The focused clinic strategy was used by the department during past illness outbreaks. There were about 160 appointments available for the two clinics, officials said. In order to make sure some of these other groups get access, we basically created some private clinics, said Christy Lawton, Anchorage s public health division manager. We ll still serve people who are eligible but we re not getting the message out the same way.
