COVID In Pitkin County: Mass Vaccination Clinic Possible Thanks To Johnson & Johnson Shipment
PITKIN COUNTY, Colo. (CBS4)- Pitkin County is hosting a mass COVID vaccination clinic on Sunday thanks to a shipment of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. The shipment included 1,500 doses.
Health officials believe the single-dose version of the coronavirus vaccine will be beneficial for smaller, rural communities because the vials can be stored easier, in a refrigerator rather than a freezer at extreme temperatures.
This is part of a larger shipment of the single-dose vaccine from Johnson & Johnson that Colorado is receiving this week.
