Two additional Flagler County residents have died of Covid-19, the Flagler Department of Health is reporting, raising the county’s total to 52 since April 1 as the coronavirus pandemic continues to infect local residents at a record pace. The positivity rate was close to 15 percent over the past 14 days, with 115 cases confirmed just today and Wednesday.
In a day of rapid developments, Bob Snyder, who heads the state-controlled Flagler County Health Department, said he expects some more doses next week, but he doesn’t know how many, and that second doses will be made available to those who are eligible for them, as a priority.
