COVID vaccine demand for 75+ MS residents outstrips supply but more sites, doses coming Anita Lee, The Sun Herald
Jan. 6 Demand is outstripping supply now that the Mississippi State Department of Health has opened COVID-19 vaccinations to residents 75 and older, but State Health Officer Dr. Thomas Dobbs expects wider availability as clinics, pharmacies and community health centers sign up to offer the shots.
He also believes residents 65 and older will be able to begin receiving shots by the week beginning Jan. 18, although that Monday is the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. Residents 65-74 can t begin booking appointments yet, he said.
In a news conference Wednesday, Dobbs also said that 189,000 doses of the vaccine have been allocated, with 132,000 of those doses going so far to hospitals, primarily for health care workers, and nursing homes.
