(RUTHERFORD COUNTY, TN)  The Rutherford County Health Department's website shows that persons age 65 and older are now (2/22/2021) eligible to receive COVID-19 vaccinations. In addition, Phase 1b is also in effect for staff members of kindergarten through 12th grade schools and child care facilities.

In an effort to get more eligible residents vaccinated, Rutherford County Mayor Bill Ketron set-up a phone-bank where you talk with a local person who will help set up a vaccination appointment for you.
