Kansas is now vaccinating individuals 16 – up, vaccines do need to be age appropriate for the individual (Pfizer 16 yrs. and up, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson 18 yrs. and up).  You may go to https://vaccinefinder.org/  and find locations that have the brand you are looking for.   You may also visit the Reno County web page https://www.renogov.org/741/COVID-19 to sign up for a vaccination time or go online and visit the Hutchinson Clinic, Prairie Star Health Center, Dillon’s pharmacies, Walmart or The Medicine Shoppe for availability.

The Reno County Health Dept. is hosting a Johnson and Johnson Vaccine clinic on Wednesday, April 14, at the Hutchinson Sports Arena.  This is open to anyone 18 years and older, it is a one dose shot and you would be considered fully vaccinated 2 weeks after receiving the vaccine.  This vaccine would allow Seniors of Class of 21’ to not be excluded from end of year activities if they were exposed to Covid-19, as we would consider them to have immunity for 6 months.  Please encourage parents and students to consider this option.  To sign up go to https://forms.renogov.org/rchd/covid19-registration/ and get registered.
