May 2 LAWRENCE Inside a cavernous building on the Douglas County fairgrounds on a rainy Wednesday afternoon, dozens of volunteers wearing orange safety vests gathered to be briefed on the work ahead: watch out for needles, respect people s privacy, stay inside if there s lightning.
This would be the county s last mass vaccination clinic for COVID-19, part of a coordinated effort that made Douglas County a state leader in delivering shots to arms. More than 45 percent of its residents have received at least one dose, the second-highest percentage among counties. ....

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Douglas County Commissioners voted unanimously Wednesday to extend the county s mask mandate and social distancing requirements.
The updated order goes into effect at 12:01 a.m. Thursday and remains in place until May 26, according to a news release from the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department.

Douglas County now has a date for Phase II COVID vaccinations to begin, but it also has far more people eager to get the vaccine than it has doses currently.
That became evident early Wednesday evening. Lawrence-Douglas County Public Health announced a little after 6 p.m. Wednesday that it would hold its first mass vaccination event for people 65 and older on Jan. 29 at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. But health leaders said they expected to only have 500 doses of the vaccine available for the appointment-only vaccination clinic. ....

LMH Health pharmacy technician Priscilla Johnson receives a COVID-19 vaccine from her son Tyler Johnson, who is a pharmacy student intern in the LMH Health inpatient pharmacy.
When Priscilla Johnson, LMH Health pharmacy technician in the oncology pharmacy department, rolled up her sleeve to receive a COVID-19 vaccine on Dec. 19, a familiar face was preparing the needle her son Tyler Johnson.
“Honestly, it was a blessed moment for me. With my own son giving me my vaccine, I was able to experience his education firsthand,” she said. “He explained things very well to me and encouraged me to get the correct information. I had no pain with the initial shot. I had some soreness later at the injection site, and I was a bit tired the first day. But I had no other symptoms or reactions.” ....
