Erath County Vaccination Center to Open Tomorrow
January 27, 2021

The Erath County Vaccination Center (ECVC) will open tomorrow at 2900 W. Washington Suite 92, in the building that formerly housed J.C. Penney and FFO Furniture. The ECVC is a joint operation between the City of Stephenville and Erath County. The Texas Department of State Health Services is sending approximately 300 doses of the Moderna vaccine to Erath County this week for the ECVC.

Recipients of the vaccine this week will be Erath County residents listed in groups 1A and 1B as published by Texas DSHS, and who have registered with Tarrant County. Priority will be given to those registered according to date of registration, and group. Registrants will be contacted by a County official for their appointment date and time. There will be no walk-ins allowed. 

Because over 1,300 Erath County residents are currently registered with Tarrant County, this will be an ongoing effort extending long past these doses. Erath County and the City of Stephenville have made arrangements to be able to receive the vaccine and anticipate an increasing supply in the future. Scheduling software is also being obtained to allow for local residents to be able to schedule vaccination appointments as they become available.

Any Erath County resident wishing to receive the vaccine at the ECVC, please go to https://www.tarrantcounty.com/en/public-health/disease-control---prevent... to register their information. As more arrangements are made and vaccine supply increases in availability, more information about how and when to receive the vaccine through the ECVC will be released.
