Vaccination clinics for residents of Canton, Highland Park, Hamtramck, Inkster, Melvindale, Pontiac Romulus and the Town of Wayne will begin on February 23, according to County Director Warren Evans.

“I am happy that Wayne County is now able to start vaccinating seniors,” Evans said. “I know everyone is anxious to get back to normal in safety. Our team is working hard to ensure that all of our residents can get vaccinated against COVID as quickly as the vaccine is available.
