ACHD To Offer Pediatric COVID-19 Vaccine Again

The Audrain County Health Department (ACHD) will once again offer a couple of opportunities for those residents aged five to 11 years of age to get the COVID-19 vaccine. The clinics will be held this Monday, December 27th and Tuesday, December 28th at the ACHD, starting at 11 a.m. both days. 

            “Both clinics will have 10 spots available for parents to sign up their child for a vaccine,” ACHD Immunization Coordinator and LPN Brandi Meyer said. “To register, parents just need to go online at www.myachd.org and choose the Appointments tab and look for the Monday or Tuesday time slots at 11 a.m.”

            Meyer said parents or a legal guardian need to accompany the child to the appointment to sign paperwork for the child.

            “We are happy to offer these clinics once again to children in Audrain County,” ACHD Administrator and CEO Craig Brace said. “Being able to offer another layer of protection to our residents of Audrain County through these clinics is being able to offer residents a chance to feel more secure about their children and their interactions with others in their day-to-day lives.”
