TOLEDO, Ohio — The Toledo-Lucas County Health Department issued an alert to parents looking to get their children vaccinated against COVID-19 Thursday night.
A spokesperson says there is an issue with the vaccine scheduling system that's allowing people to register children ages 5-11 for the vaccine at the Lucas County Rec Center and other Toledo-Lucas County Health Department clinics.
The health department says it is not offering vaccines for patients ages 5-11 until next week's school-based clinics. Anyone who was able to register through the health department for a vaccination Friday or Saturday will not be able to bring their children to get the shot.
The health department is working with local schools to host the following clinics:
- Nov. 8-9: Stranahan Elementary from 4-:7:30pm for students in Sylvania, Ottawa Hills and St. Joseph Sylvania.
- Nov. 10: Washington Junior High School gymnasium from 3:30-7:30pm for students in Washington Local, Christ the King and Horizon Academy.
