Dear Friends and Neighbors,
I wanted to share with you an exciting quick update. Mayo Clinic Health System in New Prague announced this afternoon that they will be opening a COVID-19 vaccine site. The clinic will be located within the family medicine practice and vaccines will be administered one day per week. Weekly state vaccine allocations will determine appointments.
Mayo is stressing that they will contact eligible patients for vaccine appointments. Mayo Clinic Health System patients who are eligible to receive the vaccine and have not been contacted should call (507) 594-2100.
The first day of operation at the New Prague campus will be next Wednesday, March 17. The Belle Plaine Herald has more details on this announcement here.
As a reminder, last week the vaccine eligibility was expanded to those with specific underlying health conditions, targeted essential workers, and other groups. You can find out more about when you will be able to receive your vaccine here.
This is wonderful news for our community as it will make it even easier for those wishing to be vaccinated to receive their shot.
