5,000 VACCINE DOSES AVAILABLE AT subHUB TUESDAY FOR AGES 18 AND OLDER

  

Approximately 5,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses will be administered Tuesday at the Regional Vaccination subHUB at the Washington County Expo.

Adults 18 and older are eligible to sign up to receive the vaccine, as the state announced earlier this week that all adults can be vaccinated starting Monday.

The subHUB will provide vaccines from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday.  Vaccine recipients are asked to bring a form of ID, a completed consent form, and a vaccination card if they received one at their first visit.  Consent forms are available at www.localevent.info, and can also be picked up at the Nancy Carol Roberts Memorial Library.

Second doses are administered on Wednesdays, 29 days after residents receive their first dose.  Citizens with second dose appointments on Wednesday should arrive at the Expo at the same time they received their first dose.

To date, the subHUB has administered 40,309 vaccines to Texans, 26,654 of those being first doses and 13,655 being second doses.

Residents can sign up to get their first vaccine dose at the subHUB by visiting https://wacounty.saferestart.net.
