Tioga County Public Health Department is preparing for Phase 1B of New York State<\/span>\u2019<\/span>s COVID-19 Vaccination  Program. The department saw a huge influx of phone calls starting on Saturday, Jan. 9,<\/span> <\/span>snowballing  through to today from the public seeking information regarding receiving their COVID-19 vaccine. <\/span><\/p>\n

In today’s press brief from Tioga County officials, health department officials wrote, “We are  currently awaiting further clarification from New York State regarding specifics for the 1B eligible population  group, as well as details regarding vaccine availability.”<\/span><\/p>\n

The county’s first vaccination clinic for Phase 1A is set for this Wednesday, Jan. 13, <\/span> <\/span>and all appointments have been  filled. Forthcoming clinics will follow the same protocol, with an appointment needed, which can be scheduled  online once they are apprised of vaccine availability. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPhase 1B expands our efforts to a la<\/span>rger portion of our population,” said Lisa  McCafferty, public health director, adding, ” It will take weeks to fully vaccinate this  phase. We will continue to add more clinics as we receive additional vaccine doses from the State, but <\/span>please be  patient. The vaccine will help protect our families and community; however, it will take time. Continue  practicing ongoing protocols <\/span>\u2013 <\/span>social distancing, wear masks, if sick stay home and call your <\/span>doctor.”<\/span><\/p>\n

For those eligible for the vaccine in group 1B, such as teachers and education workers, first  responders, law enforcement, and people 75 and older, visit <\/span>https:\/\/covid19vaccine.health.ny.gov<\/a> <\/span>for more information. <\/span><\/p>\n

Future COVID-19 vaccination clinic information and registration will be posted on the Tioga County COVID-19  website (<\/span>covid19.tiogacountyny.com<\/span><\/a>) and on Facebook @ Tioga County Public Health. They will also share any  additional locations where the vaccination can be obtained within Tioga County once that information is  released. <\/span><\/p>\n
