Vanderburgh County Health Department Update
June 25, 2021
The Vanderburgh County Health Department (VCHD) is continuing the partnership with the Mayor’s Reopen Task Force and METS to provide a mobile vaccine clinic at several different locations throughout Vanderburgh County and the City of Evansville. This partnership has allowed the VCHD to vaccinate hundreds of individuals where they work, shop, and live by reducing barriers people might have to receive the vaccine. Efforts to be accessible to the public with the METS mobile clinic will help to increase our vaccination rates in areas that have lower rates. Â
Starting in July the locations of the METS mobile clinics are changing, and special events have been added to the calendar for July and August. Please see the complete list of METS mobile clinics below.
Tuesdays July 6th, 13th, 20th, 27th and August 3rd, 10th, 17th, and 24th the mobile clinic will be at the Ruler Foods, 4624 N. First Ave. from 8:30 am to 12 pm, and Simpson’s Grocery, 1365 Covert Ave from 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm.
Thursdays July 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th and August 5th, 12th, 19th and 26th the mobile clinic will be at 670 Lincoln Ave. across from Lincoln School from 8:30 am to 12 pm, and Economy Grocery, 1200 N. Fulton Ave from 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm.
The METS mobile clinic will also be at the Vanderburgh County Humane Society on July 17th from 10 am to 3 pm, and the Hola Latino Festival on August 29th at Bosse Field from 11 am to 3 pm.
