Newton County Health Department offers incentive for vaccination
Newton County Health Department
Newton County and the surrounding area is seeing a large increase in the number of COVID-19 cases. Our area has received a COVID Hot Spot Advisory from the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services. Because of this, we are asking residents that have not been vaccinated to please consider getting the COVID vaccination.
As an incentive, the Newton County Health Department is going to offer a $100 gift card to 30 Newton County residents who receive both doses of either Pfizer or Moderna vaccine. Ten gift cards will be given to individuals in the 12-17 age group, ten gift cards to individuals in the 18-25 age group, and ten gift cards to individuals in the age group of 26 and older.

NEOSHO, Mo. â Despite a contentious meeting in which audience members disrupted proceedings, the Neosho City Council does not appear to have any plans to alter how it handles future meetings.
The agenda for last week s council included two ordinances dealing with hot-button topics: One would have required face coverings in public, the other would have established occupancy limits in public buildings during the pandemic. In anticipation of a crowd, the meeting was moved to the more spacious Civic Center.
Numerous individuals in the crowd of about 120 people â a large majority of whom opposed the two ordinances â caused disruptions of all sorts, from openly interrupting speakers with questions to turning their backs on a speaker.
