MARQUETTE Marquette County Health Department staff will be calling residents 65 and older from the COVID-19 vaccine pre-registration list on Monday and Tuesday for vaccine appointments on Thursday and Friday, the department announced Friday.
There will be around 1,100 appointment slots available, officials said.
Staff will contact registrants based on their place on the list, using both online and phone registrations. The health department asks people who have pre-registered to pay attention for a phone call from 906-475-9977 or a similar number. Staff will make two attempts to call, leaving a message on the first attempt so the call recipient is prepared for the second call. If the call is missed, the registrant’s name will remain on the list for the next round of appointments.

MARQUETTE Northern Michigan University’s Health Center could be notified any day of its first shipment of COVID-19 vaccine doses.
From the point of delivery about 24 hours later, the Vielmetti Health Center must safely store and administer the initial supply within seven days, NMU announced.
Staff members and representatives of the university’s COVID-19 response team met last week to coordinate efforts to communicate availability, prioritize and schedule eligible groups, and plot the logistics of holding vaccine clinics in the Northern Center.
NMU indicated it will operate the vaccine clinics similar to the Passport to Campus mass COVID-19 testing events held at the beginning of both semesters this academic year. Emails will be sent to eligible individuals based on priority criteria and availability.
