The Gaston Gazette Gaston County will only get 600 doses of COVID-19 vaccine each week for the next three weeks, which will result in fewer vaccinations per week. As large-scale events vaccinate thousands of people across the state – such as one recently held at Charlotte Motor Speedway – North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services notified Gaston County Health Department Thursday that the county would receive 600 doses per week. While the state could decide to allocate more doses for Gaston County, the county doesn’t anticipate a significant increase in doses, according to a press release. “While we are glad to know the baseline amount so that we can plan for these next three weeks, our staff stands ready to vaccinate far more individuals each week,” Public Health Director Steve Eaton wrote in a statement.
