The Iowa Department of Public Health recently announced that individuals 64 and younger with underlying medical conditions as listed in this link are eligible to receive the COVID vaccine https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/need-extra-precautions/people-with-medical-conditions.html. However, at this time, Horn Public Health will continue to focus on Phase 1B, tiers 1-5, for the March 17, 24 and 31 clinic dates.
When
we are able to move into the other populations, such as people with underlying
health conditions, announcements will be made through Facebook, www.hornmemorialhospital.org, and
the local newspapers. Please continue to be patient as vaccine demand continues
to be greater than supply.
As a reminder – upcoming clinic dates for the Moderna COVID vaccine will be
held on Wednesdays, March 17, 24, and 31 from 9 a.m. – 11 a.m. at the Lohff
Schumann Community Center in Holstein for Phase 1B, tiers 1-5 – BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.
