The Dodge County Public Health Officer says even with the initial COVID-19 vaccine doses arriving in Wisconsin last week, distribution to the general public is still probably months away. Public Health Officer Abby Sauer says initial vaccination plans will focus on health care workers and nursing home residents. Sauer says it remains to be seen if the virus becomes a seasonal illness with an annual COVID-19 vaccine, just like a flu shot. Sauer says residents need to continue safe practices of wearing a mask in public, limiting the size of social gatherings to members of your household, and taking advantage of COVID-19 testing.
