Saturday, January 9th, 2021 -- 7:17 AM
On Thursday, January 7, Clark County Health Department (CCHD) and Emergency Management hosted a coronavirus disease (COVID-19) drive-through vaccination clinic at the Owen-Withee-Curtiss Fire District in Curtiss.
The vaccination clinic distributed Moderna COVID-19 vaccinations and was limited to frontline healthcare workers. Overall, 130 individuals were given a COVID-19 vaccination. Immediately after receiving the vaccination, individuals were monitored for 15 minutes by the Owen Withee-Curtiss Fire District EMS personnel. “Throughout this pandemic, our local partners have graciously helped us accomplish our goal in preventing further spread of COVID-19. It was a privilege to be one of the first counties in central Wisconsin to provide a drive-through vaccination clinic, and we could not have done it without our local partners,” said Brittany Mews, CCHD Director/Health Officer. “We would like to extend a sincere thank you to the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, Clark County Sheriff’s Office, Owen Withee-Curtiss Fire District, and other individuals who made this event possible.”
CCHD plans on hosting additional vaccination clinics and will keep you informed as future clinics are scheduled.
