At its June 1 meeting, the Hays County Commissioners Court discussed plans to lower the number of COVID-19 vaccine distribution clinics to account for the decreasing demand of vaccines.
Hays County Judge Ruben Becerra says the demand for COVID-19 vaccinations in the county is lowering. However, as of June 1, he says there have been no reports of wasted vaccines in the county.
â[Vaccine] demand has reached its crest, and that high demand is now in the rear-view mirror,â Becerra says.
A proclamation was adopted by the court declaring June 2021 as a month-long celebration of Juneteenth in Hays County. Juneteenth recognizes June 19, 1865, as the date when enslaved people in Texas received freedom two and a half years after the U.S. 1863 Emancipation Proclamation was signed. Vanessa Westbrook of the Hays County Historical Commission and African American Heritage Committee chair says numerous celebrations have been planned for cities across the county.
