Delta variant fears are driving more patients to Pierce County vaccination clinics, providers say
The highly contagious Delta variant seems to be triggering some people to get a COVID-19 vaccination who had previously been hesitating.
In Pierce County, it's too early for hard data, but workers at local clinics say they've seen more people coming in.
“We need to just break the virus's back and the way to do it is give us your arm,” Randy Eveland, a provider at a Pierce County vaccination clinic, said.
There are several walk-up clinics around Pierce County. At one spot at the Lakewood Towne Center, patients don't need an appointment and language translation is available. Patients can pick which vaccine they want and a therapy puppy is standing by, ready to take away the sting of the shot.
