WADENA — Tri-County Health Care reported receiving a high volume of calls and questions regarding the COVID-19 vaccine.
“Our organization wants to be transparent about vaccine distribution,” Tri-County reported. “We have a limited supply of vaccine at this time, and must distribute it to priority groups first.”
Tri-County reported individuals deemed high-risk by a provider will be contacted.
This week, Tri-County Health Care stated it is focusing on vaccinating high-risk individuals and people over 75 years of age. These guidelines are set by the state.
An email opt-in link has been created for the general public. Individuals who sign up via the link will receive regular information about the vaccine and distribution. People may sign up at surveymonkey.com/r/C19OPTIN .
