Changes are happening in how people can schedule and receive their vaccines in Door County.
The Door County Health and Human Services Department s online system for people to schedule their COVID-19 vaccinations remains temporarily shut down by the county as of Tuesday because of the inability to use the vaccine made by Johnson & Johnson.
Meanwhile, Door County Medical Center announced it will hold smaller vaccination clinics instead of the mass vaccination clinic at the Sturgeon Bay hospital because so many people in the county have received their shots from a variety of sources that the demand is decreasing.
The scheduling issue for the county health department arose just a couple weeks after it closed its waiting list for vaccines and launched the online scheduler.
