Along with its large clinics in Charleston, the county health department held smaller community vaccination clinics in 2021. The aim was to reach people who could not easily travel to the Charleston Coliseum.
In February 2021 the health department and the Kanawha County Emergency Ambulance Authority vaccinated 281 people at the Rand Community Center in eastern Kanawha County. In spring 2021 smaller clinics followed at churches, schools and sports fields. One was a special needs clinic at Bible Center Church on May 7, 2021, which took walk-ins and gave Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson vaccines.
