MU Health Care Postpones Friday's Scheduled COVID-19 First-Dose Vaccinations

MU Health Care is postponing its mass vaccination clinic tomorrow for those scheduled to receive their first dose of the Moderna vaccine, the Columbia Missourian reports. The cancellation is because of weather-related shipping delays, according to a news release.

Those scheduled to receive their second dose of the Pfizer vaccine through MU Health Care tomorrow will not be affected and will still be able to receive their second dose of the vaccine as scheduled.

MU Health Care expected to receive 4,000 doses of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine this week for its vaccination clinic at the Walsworth Family Columns Club at Faurot Field. Like other statewide clinics, however, the snowstorm sweeping the Midwest prevented that shipment from arriving.
