Press release from the Humboldt County Joint Information Center:

A total of 2,976 Humboldt County residents have tested positive for COVID-19, after 16 additional cases were reported today.

As of Monday, Feb. 8, Humboldt County has been allocated 20,960 doses of COVID-19 vaccine, including Pfizer and Moderna. Because a sixth dose can often be extracted from each vial of the Pfizer vaccine, Public Health and other approved local vaccinators have maximized the state’s allocation and administered a total of 21,230 doses. 

Local health care providers who are approved to administer vaccine are reaching out to their qualifying patients directly to schedule vaccination appointments. 

Public Health is using information submitted through the online Vaccine Interest Form to fill slots at its mass vaccination clinics. County residents are encouraged to fill out the form at humboldtgov.org/InterestForm to be notified when an appointment is available for their tier.
