MOHAVE COUNTY – The Mohave County Department of Public Health will be receiving 8,000 doses of the Moderna vaccine next week, a substantial increase from the 3,000 doses received in previous weeks. County Health Director Denise Burley said, “We’ve been aggressively working every angle to increase the weekly allocation from ADHS. This work has paid off and will significantly increase the accessibility of appointments in each community.”
Next week will also involve the return of Embry as a key provider in the county. The technical reporting issues have been resolved, and Embry will receive vaccine next week. Embry has had great success as one of the county’s providers and established vaccination sites in the parking lots of Mohave Community College campuses in Kingman, Lake Havasu City, and Bullhead City. Burley said, “We are very glad to have Embry back on board and joining our great team of providers in getting the vaccine into the arms of our residents.”

The county’s list of providers continues to grow. Please monitor the county website for additions. Individuals needing more help can contact the county’s Call Center at 928-753-8665.
Only those in the 1A phase and the 1B sub-categories, 65 Years & Older and Educators/Child Care Workers, can make appointments at this time.
