Door County officials are planning for next week’s slate of drive-through flu and COVID-19 vaccine clinics as numbers continue to rise in the area.
Thursday’s situation report showed another 62 tests come back positive which helped increase the number of active cases in the county to 477. Although the number of hospitalizations reported to the state tends to lag, Door County reported three new hospitalizations since Monday’s report. No new deaths were reported.
Over 71 percent of people in Door County have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine with opportunities coming next week. People attending one of three drive-through flu vaccine clinics next week can also get inoculated for COVID-19 at the same time. The Door County Fairgrounds will be one of the sites next week with vaccinations being offered from 12 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Monday and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday. Door County Public Health will also host a similar clinic at the Sister Bay Fire Station on October 14th from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. The flu vaccine is $39.00 and is available to those ages 4 and up.
