HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) As President Joe Biden kicks off his national COVID-19 strategy to ramp up vaccinations and testing, ABC13 will air a Vaccine Rollout weekly special on Thursdays at 6:30 p.m. to keep you up to date with the latest vaccine developments.
Memorial Hermann is already looking ahead. In order to vaccinate 70 percent of the population, which would help Houston reach herd immunity, McCarthy says 50,000 people would need to be vaccinated a day. We re not there yet, but he said when we have the supply, Houston could pull that off.
Beginning Tuesday, Jan. 12, ABC13 will air a "Vaccine Rollout" special every Thursday at 6:30 p.m. to keep you up to date with the latest vaccine rollout developments.
