COVID-19 Vaccine progress and updates from CHFS

On Friday, the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services issued the following summary of progress on COVID-19 vaccination distribution in the state.

This week's progress (as of Jan. 22, 2021):
  • 267,577 total doses administered (248,127 first dose; 19,450 second)
  • 223,867 doses administered through the state program
  • 43,710 administered through long-term care facilities (LTCFs) program
  • 345,800 doses received for state program
  • 120,900 doses received for LTCF program
  • More than 83,000 doses were administered from Jan. 10 to 16, about 16,000 more than were administered the week prior. So far this week, Jan. 17 to date, more than 57,000 doses have been administered.
  • On Tuesday, Governor Andy Beshear formally requested from Operation Warp Speed that the federal government double the amount of vaccine the state receives every week.
  • Monday was the first day for second doses of Moderna. As of today, 5,869 second doses of Moderna have been administered.



Next week's goals:
  • Vaccine allocations, week of Jan. 25: Pfizer 28,275; Moderna 27,900
  • On Thursday, Jan. 28, the Governor will provide more details on the Kroger regional, drive-through vaccination sites including locations and how to sign up. The sites will open the week of Feb. 1 for Kentuckians in Phase 1A, 1B and 1C.
  • Vaccinations continue for K-12 school personnel, with Kentucky among only 19 states prioritizing educators and the only state in the region doing so. The state expects to finish administering initial vaccination doses for this group the week of Feb. 1.

Things to know:
  • The Governor said Kentucky is now administering the vaccine faster than the federal government is sending in new doses. The state is working to distribute the safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines as quickly as possible, but is asking everyone to be patient as supply is currently limited.
  • Kentucky has been recognized [cnn.com] as one of only nine states that have administered more than half of the doses they've received.
  • All residents and staff in skilled nursing facilities across Kentucky have been offered their first shot through federal partners CVS and Walgreens.
  • Approximately two-thirds of assisted living facilities across the commonwealth have had their first vaccine clinic with CVS or Walgreens.
  • Continue to social distance, wear a face mask in public, and wash your hands, even if you have received the vaccine.
