Following is the Tuesday Vax Facts update from the Saline County Health Department.
If you believe you are an eligible member of a Phase 2 population and have not yet registered please do so immediately.
If you have already registered, please do not register again.
If you received your first vaccine through an organization other than the Health Department or Salina Family Healthcare Center, please contact that organization for your second dose.
Senior citizens remain the priority Phase 2 population. Other Phase 2 populations currently being scheduled for their vaccinations include:
●K12 teachers and staff,
●childcare workers,
●first responders and law enforcement, and
●city and county critical infrastructure workers.
Vaccine supply remains the primary barrier to vaccinating our community.
Unfortunately due to the state allocation process local staff members are unable to tell you when you can expect a vaccine at the time of your registration. Please be patient and someone will call you as soon as we have vaccine available for you.
You can track KDHE's weekly vaccination allocation to each county on the KansasVaccine.gov data page.
Those without access to the internet can register via phone or by visiting the Salina Senior Services Center.
Please remember to be cordial with the medical personnel who are working tirelessly to serve the Saline County Community.
