COVID cases increasing in Kings County, vaccines lagging in some ZIP codes

While COVID cases in the county are increasing, vaccine rates are also slowly ticking up, but some areas are lagging.
During Tuesday’s Board of Supervisors meeting Public Health Director Ed Hill gave a weekly update on COVID statistics, which included a map showing vaccination rates by ZIP code.
The county has recorded 210 new cases in the last week, with 361 open cases as of Tuesday, Hill said. Among those hospitalized, 88.89% were unvaccinated.
Among COVID cases in the county, 3% of infections were breakthrough cases in people who received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, along with 2% for both Pfizer and Moderna recipients, Hill said.
