Gov. Andy Beshear announced 157 new vaccination sites across the state on March 4, including more than 100 independent pharmacies, as the state continues its vaccination efforts.
The stateâs new locations include 10 Walmart sites and 136 independent pharmacies, as well as 10 Kroger sites, bringing the stateâs total number of vaccination locations to 567. As of March 7, 830,842 Kentuckians had been vaccinated, and 845,695 first vaccine doses had been allocated to Kentucky.
âThis means that vaccine locations are getting closer and closer to you. This is the infrastructure we have to build,â Beshear said in a statement on March 4, regarding the significance of the new sites. âThe President told us earlier this week that every American adult who wants a shot can get their shot of hope by the end of May. That means that if we can get everybody interested, weâre going to vaccinate another 2.5 million people in the next three months.â
