FOND DU LAC - The county s first COVID-19 vaccine clinic for residents age 65 and older was filled in less than one day, Fond du Lac County Health Department said Wednesday afternoon.
The department received an overwhelming response after announcing on Tuesday the COVID-19 vaccination clinic, set for Jan. 27, Health Officer Kim Mueller said in a Wednesday press release. If you do not receive a call back by the end of this week, you will be placed on a waitlist for future clinics, Mueller said. We ask for your patience in this process.
Due to the large amount of interest among this population, the department is no longer adding new callers to the callback list for future vaccine clinics.
