A limited supply of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine is expected to arrive in Brown County this week with medical workers first on the list to receive it.
During the Brown County Commissioners meeting Monday morning, Lisa Dick of the Brownwood/Brown County Health Department gave an update on Covid.
“We will start receiving vaccines in our community this week and I think that is a big positive. It will be healthcare focused. Certainly not enough to take care of all of our health care workers in this community but it’s going to be a start and I think that is a very good thing,” Lisa said.
