At a press conference covered by WREX-TV, the county’s public health administrator, Sandra Martell, said more than 4,000 vaccinations had been given out at the National Guard site on Sandy Hollow Road. The health department is also trying to expand vaccinations geographically. Planning continues to identify a site on the west side of Rockford to increase access for our communities of concern, including our black and brown communities that had the highest risk of disease burden.
