We've got lots of vaccination capacity, but too few doses
EVERETT — It’s been three weeks since Snohomish County’s first drive-thru vaccine clinic opened at Paine Field in Everett.
Since then, three more have popped up — at Edmonds College in Lynnwood, the Evergreen State Fairgrounds in Monroe and, most recently, Arlington Municipal Airport.
Combined, vaccinators at the sites have administered more than 15,000 doses, about a third of all shots given in the county since shipments started arriving in mid-December.
“We’re three weeks into this, while others are just getting started,” Snohomish County Department of Emergency Management Director Jason Biermann said Friday. “I’m very proud of our team.”
