Gov. Beshear: 1.9M people have received first dose in KY By Crystal Staley/Sebastian Kitchen Frankfort, KY - On Monday, Gov. Andy Beshear announced 1,927,168 people have received at least their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine in Kentucky. "Overall, 54% of all Kentucky adults and 80% of Kentuckians 65 and older now have at least their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine," said Gov. Beshear. "And for more good news, Kentuckians as young as 12 have started getting their shots of hope." On May 28, all indoor and outdoor events of any size and businesses of any capacity can increase to 75% capacity. Just two weeks later, the state's emerging economy is set for liftoff as final capacity restrictions related to COVID-19 end Friday, June 11. The same day, the state will also eliminate the mask mandate for all Kentuckians with the exceptions of places where people are the most vulnerable. Gov. Beshear said the proven effectiveness of vaccinations and expanded vaccine eligibility to include 12- to 15-year-olds is allowing the commonwealth to safely and sustainably ease restrictions. Case Information As of 4 p.m. Monday, May 17, Gov. Beshear reported the following COVID-19 numbers:
The bottom five counties by percent of residents vaccinated are: Christian (18%), Spencer (18%), Ballard (20%), McCreary (21%) and Lewis (21%). This story was posted on 2021-05-17 20:26:08
