KOUNTZE, Texas — A temporary vaccine site will soon open in Kountze as Hardin County health officials continue to make the COVID-19 vaccines available to residents, according County Judge Wayne McDaniel.
The vaccination site will be at the First United Methodist Church located at 1015 South Pine Street, starting on Monday, March 22.
Vaccines will be administered Monday through Friday for the week of March 22-26 and March 29-April 3.
