Coastal Georgia health officials urge patience in sign ups for COVID-19 vaccinations
Read full article: Coastal Georgia health officials urge patience in sign ups for COVID-19 vaccinationsThe Southeast Georgia Health District that began scheduling appointments for COVID-19 vaccinations for those 65-years-old and older and their caregivers on Thursday has been overwhelmed by demand. Emergency first responders, healthcare workers and residents and staff of long-term care facilities are also eligible for the vaccine during the current phase. The Coastal Health District, which serves the counties of Bryan, Camden, Chatham, Effingham, Glynn, Liberty, Long and McIntosh, said there are about 100,000 people in that age group in the area. We sincerely hope that shortly there will be a community-wide network of providers (pharmacies, private physicians, health clinics, etc.) Your health department is staffed by a dedicated, scrappy bunch, but we are small and the task is large.
