Two COVID-19 vaccines have been approved for Emergency Use Authorization by the Food and Drug Administration. One of the vaccines is from Pfizer, and the other is from Moderna. Shelby County Health Department administrator Audrey Gough provides some insight how these two vaccines will likely be distributed to rural counties.

Shelby county is waiting for their shipment of Moderna vaccine.

Gough added despite the back log in Moderna vaccine, the March/April goal for the general public to have access to a vaccine is still realistic.
