Heritage Valley Health System administered more than 1,500 COVID-19 vaccines to Phase 1A individuals last Saturday at the CCBC Dome and is slated to do so again tomorrow. Vaccination slots for tomorrow's clinic filled rapidly after the schedule was opened to include ages 65 and older.
To date, 86,000 registrations have been received and more than 29,000 doses of the vaccine have been administered. The Health System continues to focus on the needs of our community members and is still actively scheduling those ages 65 and above.
