Health Department Annual Report — Cheryl Johnson presented the 2009 annual report emphasizing
the health and wellness of the residents and community is their daily commitment. The H1N1 influx
emerged in the spring of 2009 causing many people to become ill. The Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention responded by implementing a mass vaccination process across the county. The Health
Department received 18,400 doses of vaccine in late October and by the end of December had given
16,800 vaccinations through seventeen clinics at the department. Due to the continued economic
recession many residents sought the services provided at the Health Department and they served record
numbers. The Kendall-Grundy Community Action Unit was awarded a grant for increased
Weatherization in the two counties. Cheryl complimented the members of the Board of Health for
their commitment and dedication to providing services to the residents of Kendall County.
