Baptist Health Hardin offers vaccine to those 70 and older

Ahead of schedule, Baptist Health Hardin officials announced Tuesday that they would begin vaccinations of those 70 and older as part of the Phase 1B plan for the state of Kentucky. As of Tuesday, the healthcare provider offered a phone number for qualified residents to call if they were interested in receiving a vaccine. However, it was noted that callers would experience delays in getting through to a scheduler, as demand for vaccines had increased throughout the day. The number can be found by going to Baptist Health Hardin’s website.
