FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Health officials say the escalating loss of life is adding more urgency to get people vaccinated for COVID-19.
Fresno County health officials say they are asking the state for more doses as they work to meet intense demand.
They say the doses aren't coming in as fast as they'd like.
"We are going to be running out of vaccine if our allocation doesn't increase," says interim health officer Dr. Rais Vohra.
To date, the Department of Public Health has received a total of 86,000 doses.
