Mount Rogers Health District partnering with Wythe County Hospital in helping administering COVID-19 vaccines
The Mount Rogers Health District in Southwest Virginia has a new hospital partner in assisting in the administration of COVID-19 vaccines to regional older residents.
That partner is the Wythe County Community Hospital, which will give local health officials yet another vaccine site to administer doses as part of efforts to end the pandemic that has killed nearly 5,500 Virginians to this point. The health district is currently in Phase 1b of the state’s vaccine distribution program, which includes eligibility for residents ages 75 and older.
