DENVER Thousands of Coloradans began receiving the Johnson & Johnson vaccine as part of the state s very first allotment on Saturday.
More than 45,000 doses of the third vaccine arrived in Colorado earlier this week.
On Saturday, roughly 1,900 doses were administered at a National Jewish Health vaccine clinic. It s easier on us because we can vaccinate a lot more people. We can use resources for that second clinic to vaccinate people for the first time, said Dr. Charles Dailey, who helped vaccinate Coloradans on Saturday morning.
