From Dr. Laatsch’s Community Message:
The Covid-19 vaccine is now approved for 5-11 year olds and is authorized to be distributed to local health departments, schools, etc. The Washtenaw County Health Department (WCHD) will begin offering the vaccine on November 9th. Click HERE for more information and/or to schedule an appointment. SAS hopes to be able to host our first vaccination clinic at Heritage School for 5-11 year olds on November 16th. We are working with the MDHHS vendor (LTS) to confirm this date and we will share more information as soon as it becomes available. We encourage you to reach out to your child’s physician to discuss vaccination and for more information about other vaccine opportunities that may be available to you.
