On Wednesday, City of Oxford staff took steps to receive covid-19 vaccinations. The event took place at the Oxford City Hall Auditorium. The vaccinations were administered now that Phase 3 is underway in North Carolina, which allows frontline workers to get the shots.
In attendance, among others, were City Manager Alan Thornton and Parks and Recreation Director Tina Cheek. Thornton said in a news release as to why he decided to receive the vaccine, “I and the City believe it is important to receive the vaccine and encourage everyone to do so when the opportunity arises.” He extended appreciation to Granville Healthy Systems and Granville Vance Public Health for all of their hard work during this time.
