Montgomery County health officials are continuing to press for the state for a local COVID-19 mass vaccination center by preparing at least one site with the needed infrastructure and planning.
The county has proposed at least three locations as potential mass vaccination sites to the state health department, including the fairgrounds in Gaithersburg.
Asked what the other two sites are, Mary Anderson, a spokeswoman for the county’s health department, wrote in a text message that the county is “looking at a few, but the fairgrounds is all I can tell you about at this time.”
