The county will complete their 1a group by the end of this week and are now accepting appointments for those 65 and older and plan to start vaccinating on Jan. 25.

Wohlfeil said that they will have controlled spacing, the appointments will be on time and they request that people do not arrive early to keep with the CDC guidelines. Once vaccinated the individuals will be asked to be seated in the hallway for 15 minutes in case of a reaction to the vaccine.
