Count On Me Richland County presents COVID-19 Town Halls
When will the pandemic be over? What will life look like after the pandemic? Will I need a COVID-19 vaccination every year? Local medical, business, and community experts will address these questions, and many more, at three special Virtual Town Halls, scheduled to be livestreamed on Richland Public Health’s Facebook page at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday, April 13, Tuesday, April 20, and Wednesday, April 21. If you would like to ask the panelists a question before the livestream, please e-mail it to chps@richlandhealth.org. Real-time questions can be submitted on Richland Public Health’s Facebook page or by calling 419-774-4761 anytime throughout the livestreams.
If you cannot make the livestreams, each Town Hall session will be available for viewing on the Richland Public Health Facebook page and will also be broadcasted on WMFD TV on April 15 (Medical Expert Town Hall), April 22 (African American Town Hall), and April 23 (Getting Back to Normal Town Hall) at 7:00p.m.
