COVID-19 Testing & Vaccination Sites
The Wellness Coalition is working throughout the River Region to increase awareness and access to vaccinations for COVID-19. In addition to spreading the news via social media and other means of communications, we have partnered with numerous clinics, pharmacies, and community organizations to hold health fairs in Lowndes, Macon, and Montgomery counties.

River Region Residents Speak Up
COVID-19 News, Updates, and Stories
One of the best ways we combat the myths and falsehoods that have spread about COVID-19 and vaccines is to continue to circulate information vetted by science. One other way is to take the time to listen to people who are unsure about what they are hearing so that we can address their concerns with the latest and most accurate information.
