Staff held a moment of silence to honor those who have lost their lives or who have otherwise been impacted by COVID-19 before beginning to administer the first doses of vaccine. Since the pandemic began, COVID-19 has taken the lives of more than 5,000 Minnesotans, including 187 Washington County residents. The vaccination is one of the most important steps to stopping the spread of COVID-19, and moves the community closer to the end of the pandemic.

Washington County will receive additional allocations of vaccine from MDH each week. Until vaccines are universally available, Washington County urges residents to continue to wear a mask, stay at least six feet away from others, wash hands often, and stay home when sick.
