Summit County Public Health administers vaccines at a drive through set up outside its W. Market St. offices in Akron.

Summit County Public Health has been running vaccination clinics ever since the COVID-19 vaccine became readily available in December 2020.

Currently, 43% of Summit County residents have been vaccinated.

During the month of June, the county is stepping up efforts as the Biden Administration pushes to have 70% of Americans vaccinated by the 4th of July.

Health commissioner Donna Skoda says their efforts this month include outreach and incentives.

Skoda hopes increased availability of the vaccine as well as the added incentives will encourage more people to get fully vaccinated.
