The Indiana Department of Health will begin reducing its COVID-19 response operations and substantial availability of COVID-19 vaccines and treatment at health provider locations.
The state’s COVID-19 positivity rate has fallen from 33.6 percent on January 19 to 13.1 percent on Wednesday, February 16. The demand for testing has also declined.
As a result, the Indiana Department of Health is suspending its testing and vaccination strike teams that had been deployed across the state but will continue to make mobile vaccination and testing units available upon request.
Additionally, the Indiana National Guard support for long-term care facilities and hospitals will end March 14, and no new requests will be accepted after February 26.
Individuals in need of COVID-19 testing can find a site at www.coronavirus.in.gov or call 211. Information on COVID-19 vaccines, booster doses and vaccination clinics can visit www.ourshot.in.gov or call 211.
