(CHILLICOTHE) – As announced by Ohio Governor Mike DeWine earlier this month, Adena Health System will serve as one of 15 mass vaccination clinic sites throughout Ohio significantly expanding regional access to COVID-19 vaccines. Adena is set to receive the one dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine to begin administration as a mass vaccination clinic site on Wednesday, March 31 at the PACCAR Medical Education Center, located on the campus of Adena Regional Medical Center in Chillicothe.
Each regional mass vaccination clinic will be locally operated with support from the Ohio Department of Health and Ohio Emergency Management Agency. Adena’s clinic will be equipped to administer thousands of vaccines a day depending on supply and demand.
“As a rural health system with a mission of being called to serve our communities, it is a tremendous honor to be asked by the Governor and assist our state officials as one of Ohio’s mass vaccination clinic sites,” said Jeff Graham, Adena President & CEO. “Vaccines are our best defense against COVID-19, and it is a privilege to collaborate with our healthcare partners across the region and state in this coordinated effort to ensure all individuals have an opportunity to receive the vaccine as it becomes available.”

Vaccination appointments can be made by individuals 18 years of age and older by calling 1-833-4-ASK-ODH (1-833-427-5634) or visiting gettheshot.coronavirus.ohio.gov.

The Planning Commission of the City of Chillicothe will hold a regularly scheduled meeting in April that will be in-person and outdoors.
The Wednesday, April 14th session will be at 3:30pm at the Lion’s Shelter in Yoctangee Park. This meeting is open to the public and you may attend and be heard if you are interested and so desire either in person, or by agent and/or attorney.
Most all of the City of Chillicothe’s various governmental meetings have been done virtually since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
With improving weather conditions and dropping COVID-19 numbers in Ohio, the Planning Commission has decided to conduct this outdoors in-person public meeting. While the notice of the meeting did not state it, it is assumed that current Ohio public social distancing guidelines will be in place for those attending the April 14th meeting.
