Questions to be addressed include: what are the chances of a mass vaccination event to be held in Platte County? What have been the challenges for the local health department in acquiring doses of the vaccine? What is the estimated time frame on shot for the various categories of residents who have registered their interest with the health department? How many doses would the health department need to serve everyone in its jurisdiction who has expressed interest? Do people who have already experienced a bout with COVID need to be vaccinated? How are the local COVID-19 numbers, are they trending up or down?

Landmark Live will air live at 6 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 11 on the newspaper’s Facebook page, which is found at “Platte County Landmark.” The show also appears live on the newspaper’s web site at plattecountylandmark.com. The video will also remain on those platforms for later viewing at your leisure,
