As vaccine continues to 'trickle' in, Whatcom 'moving at the pace we are based on supply'

Nearly a month after Whatcom County began COVID-19 vaccinations, supply continues to “trickle” into the county, county health officials said Wednesday, and the county has been allocated a little more than 9,000 doses to this point.

Of those, approximately 800 were shipped this week, Whatcom County Health Department Health Information and Assessment Supervisor Amy Hockenberry, who is leading the county’s vaccination efforts, said during an online briefing Jan. 13.
