On April 5, 2020, Franklin County reported its first confirmed case of COVID-19. Exactly one year to the day later, all adult residents are now eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
"Who would have thought we'd ever be this far," said Ashley Roberts, director of Franklin County Public Health. "It's crazy to think that it's been a whole year."
Franklin County Public Health has been diligently working to vaccinate the county population and hopes that the new expansion of eligibility will encourage more people to schedule appointments.
