State Plans 24-hour Vaccine Site in Pima County

While Pima County has used 71% of their current vaccine supply, the county administrator said one county POD previously received a notification from the state that they had used less than 40% of their supply without information on how the rate was calculated. Huckelberry said the notice was retracted by the state but asked Christ for more clarification going forward. “To help assist our PODs, we would ask to understand the calculation methodology, have a preview of the messaging to our partners who receive allocations as well as be invited to any meetings that involve these partners,” he wrote. “We understand these are all startup irregularities.

State plans 24-hour vaccination site in Pima County

After some communication troubles between Pima County and the state, Arizona Department of Health Services Director Cara Christ said plans are the works to set up a 24-hour vaccination site in the county. Although County Administrator Chuck Huckelberry has requested the stateâs help in setting up a 24-hour point of distribution site at Rillito Park, itâs not clear where the state-run site would be set up. Christ wrote in a letter to Huckelberry on Jan. 29 that âADHS will work with the Arizona Department of Emergency and Military Affairs (DEMA) to select the vaccination site and discuss logistics.â If the state sets up the POD, the vaccines supplying it would be taken out of Pima Countyâs total state allocation.
