The City of Hyattsville directly operated a vaccination site launched on February 24,2021 and a testing site that launched on June 15, 2020. The site was operated as a partnership between Hyattsville, Luminis Health, the Prince George's County Health Department, and First United Methodist Church of Hyattsville. These entities also provide facilities, equipment, staffing, supplies, communications, security, and other activities as needed for reduction of the immediate threat of COVID-19 by providing vaccination clinic facilities and associated support. The vaccine costs estimated at $244,583 and testing site costs estimated at $291,997 are reimbursed 100% by FEMA. The FEMA COVID-19 Reimbursement Grant total of $536,580 for both programs are for COVID related expenses from July 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023.
Next Steps:
Appropriate the FY23 vaccine cost estimated at $244,583 and testing site costs estimated at $291,997 for COVID related costs expensed from July 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023, that will be 100% reimbursed by FEMA.
