Johnson County expands Phase 2 of COVID-19 vaccination plan

Johnson County is moving forward with Phase 2 of its COVID-19 vaccination plan. “It’s about getting the vaccine into the arms into as many people as possible,” said Dr. Sanmi Areola, director of Johnson County Department of Health and Environment. The county will start vaccinating people 65 years and older, and K-12 special education teachers—who could get their shot this week. “Our special education teachers and students tend to be quarantined because of the students’ inability to mask and mask well,” said Elizabeth Holzschuh, director of epidemiology, at Johnson County Department of Health and Environment.
