(KAIR)--The COVID-19 vaccination process is continuing in Doniphan County.

That’s according to a release issued Wednesday by the Doniphan County Health Department/Home Health.

According to the release, the agency will be hosting a Moderna COVID-19 appointment-only clinic on April 28. It will be held at the Doniphan County Health Department, located at 201 South Main Street, in Troy.

According to the release, those wishing to be vaccinated at that time, must call 785-985-3591 to make an appointment.

The release notes that those choosing the Moderna-brand vaccine must be able to return to the office on May 26 for a booster dose.

Meanwhile, the Associated Press reports that Kansas has crossed the threshold of vaccinating more than 1 million people as a third highly contagious variant is detected in the state. That means 35% of the state’s 2.9 million residents have received at least one shot, according to state data released Wednesday. The state hit the mark one day after the Kansas Department of Health and Environment announced that a particularly contagious variant of COVID-19 that is sweeping through Brazil has been detected for the first time in Kansas. The agency said it is investigating how someone in Sedgwick County became infected with the P.1 variant and whether others may have been exposed.
