Public Health Announces Mobile Vaccination Clinics for August

BUTTE COUNTY, Calif. – Butte County Public Health (BCPH), in partnerships with Enloe Medical Center and Walmart, announces mobile COVID-19 community vaccination clinics for the month of August.

As of July 26, 2021, 45.9% of Butte County residents eligible for the vaccine (ages 12 and older) have been fully vaccinated and 52% have received at least one dose.
