That’s the scope of Ohio Northern University’s state-sponsored COVID-19 vaccine outreach to rural areas of Northwest Ohio.
HealthWise Mobile Clinic, ONU’s 38-foot RV operated by the Raabe College of Pharmacy, is scheduled to hit the road starting Wednesday, March 31.
Governor Mike DeWine recently designated HealthWise Mobile Clinic as a mass-vaccination site for serving those who don’t have easy access to larger metropolitan areas where vaccines are more readily available.

Do you agree with the following candidates for overdue retirement? Let the Icon know in the comments!
