Veterans in more rural communities were able to receive their vaccines closer to home thanks to a pilot program through the V-A. Robley Rex V-A Medical Center launched a pilot program at their Grayson County Clinic last Friday, with the goal of making vaccines more accessible for veterans in rural communities. 

Clinic Manager Ron Crump says the VA hopes to expand the rural vaccine program to other community-based clinics across the Robley Rex service area.
