Eau Claire’s health department is opening a drive-thru vaccine clinic.
The city-county health department yesterday said nurses will offer shots on Wednesdays at UW-Eau Claire’s Water Street parking lot. There will be a second drive-thru spot on Thursday at the health department itself. Both are scheduled to be open throughout July. Health director Lieske Giese says the county is moving to a drive-thru clinic because the large clinic at UW-EC’s Zorn Arena is closing. CLICK FOR MORE FROM LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS.
Wisconsin has not yet hit the 50-percent mark for coronavirus vaccinations.
The state’s Department of Health Services yesterday said the state is at 49-point-eight-percent vaccinated. That means just over two-point-nine-million people in the state have gotten at least one dose of the vaccine. Wisconsin has been stuck at 49- percent vaccinated since last week.
