Wabash County Health Department administrator Judy Wissel told Wabash County Commissioners Monday that it appears demand for the COVID-19 vaccine is beginning to slow locally. She said some of the recent vaccine clinics haven’t been full and several appointments are open for the next clinic being held today at Parkview Christian Church where the Moderna vaccine is being given. Wissel said vaccines are available to anyone 16 and over in Illinois, but the health department only has the Moderna and Johnson and Johnson vaccines that require the recipient to be at least 18 years old. So far, the health department has given 7,884 vaccines in Wabash and Edwards Counties which does not include the vaccines Wabash General Hospital gave to its’ employees. According to Wissel, Wabash County has recorded 1,289 COVID cases, with 12 currently in isolation and 10 in quarantine. As of yesterday, the county’s positivity rate had edged up to 6%.
