WINONA, Minn. (KWNO)- Winona County Health and Human Services will hold a vaccine clinic in Lewiston on Thursday.  

The appointment and walk-in clinic will take place from 4-5:30 p.m. at the Lewiston Community Center. Officials will administer the Pfizer vaccine, meaning people ages 16 and older who live and work in Winona County are eligible for a shot.  

During an interview on KWNO last week, Winona County Emergency Management Coordinator Ben Klinger announced plans to shift vaccine clinics into smaller communities and evenings to catch residents who the county has missed.  

“We are up in the 80 percent for retired and elderly people who are more available during the day so we’ll shift a little more into evenings,” said Klinger.  

Klinger also said the county’s move into smaller communities is an effort to help reach residents who have difficulty traveling. To make an appointment, click here or call 507-457-6375.
