Vaccine Information and Links for Racine County Residents

Jan. 27, 2021 4:30p

From Racine County: 

Currently those in Phase 1A (frontline health care workers, EMS, fire and police personnel) and residents age 65 and older are eligible for vaccinations. According to the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, vaccination is a shared responsibility and requires collaboration among all healthcare, pharmacies, public health and other partners.

For the week of January 25, please see below the latest information on public-facing local vaccinations:

  1. Local Racine County Health Departments continue to assist with the provision of COVID-19 vaccine to fill vaccination gaps for eligible populations. Neither health department received its full allotment of requested vaccine this week and, due to the limited supply, does not have any open appointments as they continue to work through Phase 1A and begin vaccinating those ages 65 and older.
  1. Health care providers are helping provide vaccine to those in 1A. For those ages 65+ who have a local doctor, your local healthcare provider should be reaching out to you. You can also visit your provider's website for more instructions.
  1. Local pharmacies are either gearing up to vaccinate or have begun vaccinating.
