Monroe –In efforts to ensure that the healthcare workers in Green County are vaccinated for COVID-19,
Green County public health is seeking those healthcare workers and personal care workers who are not
affiliated with a healthcare system and need to be vaccinated for COVID-19.
Supply of the COVID-19 vaccine is currently limited, but as production increases more vaccine will be
available to more people. The vaccine is being distributed in a phased approach and we are currently in
Phase 1A. Individuals who are eligible to get vaccinated in this phase include healthcare workers and people
in long term care facilities. We anticipate that Phase 1 may take several months to complete.
Healthcare workers that are not affiliated with a healthcare system and need to receive the COVID-19
vaccine are invited to fill out a survey from the Green County Public Health Department. This survey can be
found at our website, gcpublichealth.org. Additionally, information about who is a part of Tier 1A can be
found on our website. After filling out the survey our department will be in contact with those who are a part
of Tier 1A about getting vaccinated when we have vaccine available.
If a healthcare worker is a part of a healthcare system, clinic, or pharmacy we ask that they speak with their
employer about getting vaccinated.
The COVID-19 vaccine is not yet available to the general public. Green County Public Health will
communicate to the public updates in COVID-19 vaccine availability through Facebook, our website, and
press releases.
