Team Audrain: Health department rolls out new campaign to encourage vaccinations
AUDRAIN COUNTY − The Audrain County Health Department (ACHD) is rolling out a new vaccination campaign to encourage people to receive the vaccine.
A news release from ACHD says the low rates of vaccination in the county is the cause of the new campaign, Team Audrain. According to the state's vaccine dashboard, there are only 26.9% of Audrain County residents fully vaccinated. It shows 181 doses have been administered the last seven days.
The campaign hopes to increase awareness of getting vaccinated, spark more conversations and overall increase the number of vaccinated individuals in the county.
Vaccinated individuals will be able to fill out a survey, or call 573-581-1332, to receive a metal 'COVID-19 Vaccinated' lapel pin in the mail. Recipients will be asked to wear the pin around town and post a picture on social media using '#TeamAudrain' on their post. Those who share may get the opportunity to have their COVID-19 vaccination story shared on ACHD social media.
