PHD hosting COVID-19 vaccine clinic in Wallace

The Panhandle Health District (PHD) is hosting a COVID-19 vaccine clinic in Wallace for those ages 12 and older.

“We realize there are not many COVID vaccine providers in Shoshone County, so we want to provide an opportunity for those who have not been able to receive the vaccine yet or might need a booster dose,” said Kristina Gavin, nurse manager at PHD. “Depending on how these clinics go and gauging the demand in that area, we can decide if more of these clinics are needed.”
