BEEVILLE, Texas — Some good news for Beeville residents.

CHRISTUS Spohn Hospital Beeville has been named a COVID-19 Vaccination Hub by the State of Texas.

They are trying to make the COVID-19 vaccine more accessible to people who live in the area. Vaccine administrations are being conducted by drive-thru events.

As of Wednesday, the hospital has vaccinated over 1,300 people that fall into the Phase 1A or Phase 1B category.

Appointments for upcoming clinics are no longer available.

However, the hospital expects to receive another shipment of vaccines. Health officials are awaiting word from the state on when and how many additional vaccines will be received.

Once additional vaccines are available, the community is asked to schedule an appointment rather than arriving to the hospital.
