WELLSVILLE, N.Y. (WKBW) — The Allegany County Department of Health is temporarily opening registration for COVID-19 vaccine appointments to eligible residents from seven neighboring counties through Sunday.

Eligible residents from Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Wyoming, Livingston, Steuben, Erie, and Niagara counties may register for the additional appointments.
UPDATE: As of Thursday at 11 a.m., Allegany County public health officials say there are "lots of appointments still open."
