Washington County Ambulance District Director Says the Pandemic is Not Over

(Potosi) A combination of the new Delta variant of the coronavirus and many in Missouri who still have not received vaccination shots is keeping the pandemic front and center this summer.

Justin Duncan is the director of the Washington County Ambulance District.

He says there are many ways that Washington County residents can get vaccinated and it’s very easy to do.

In fact, some festivals in Missouri and other parts of the country are deciding to cancel their events because of the large numbers of new positive cases of Covid-19.

Some hospitals are also beginning to see high numbers of Covid-19 patients…the majority of them who have refused, for whatever reason, to not get vaccinated.
