Goldston Church Helps Members Access Vaccines PHOTOGRAPHY COURTESY OF THE CHATHAM COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENT
and the Chatham County Public Health Department worked with other community agencies to set up a drive-thru vaccination clinic in Goldston in February. Medical professionals and volunteers administered shots to 210 eligible people from southwest Chatham who signed up through the online vaccine tool or by phone. The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services began allocating additional doses of the COVID-19 vaccine this winter to providers and counties based on several factors to improve equity in vaccine distribution and ensure access among historically marginalized populations and areas with less access to health care.
