| Profile: |
Meigs County, Ohio needs to expand its emergency medical focus from wait and see to being able to respond on short notice to vaccinate or medicate all 23,000 rural inhabitants. There are no hospitals and only 4 medical clinic providers with 3 doctors, so medically-trained, competent volunteers are needed.
