I’m finding out that maybe the best way to learn what the local public health issues are concerning Covid-19 infections as well as vaccine availability are through the county public health agency in my area.
According to the Johnson County Public Health department, hospital admission rates in Johnson County currently low. I can search the map and see that admissions are rising in certain areas of Iowa.
I also learned that the new Covid-19 vaccine will more likely be available closer to the end of the month or early next month rather than in a few days as suggested by presenters at the CDC meeting on September 12, 2023.
The county public health agencies may not have the most current information. Johnson County’s last update as of yesterday was September 1, 2023.
You can also check local pharmacies for availability of the Covid-19 vaccine.
