Vaccines are the future when it comes to COVID-19 and Taylorville Memorial Hospital CEO, Kim Bourne, was on hand to give an update on COVID-19 vaccination numbers and numbers in Christian County are on the up. 

Bourne is proud of the hard work that has gone into vaccines going out, saying that it is impressive how well the county has done in just 80 days. She expects the numbers of those vaccinated to greatly increase in the near future with the new Johnson and Johnson vaccine.

Bourne had her shot all done and had a reaction to it, which meant that the vaccine was doing its job.

Bourne discussed what the current qualifications are for getting the COVID vaccine as it is still not open for everyone.

Kim Bourne appeared as a guest on the NEWSTALK WTIM morning show.
