Vaccinations are underway at Michigan’s long-term care facilities. Data from CVS show the pharmacy had distributed over 20,000 doses as of Friday.
Walgreens doesn’t provide the same state-level data, but says it expects to administer all first doses for those residents and staff who want them by January 25.
Administrators in Michigan facilities say residents have been more eager to get their vaccines than staff. That goes for their family members as well, many of whom have to sign consent forms for their loved ones.
Lenawee Medical Care Facility administrator Erin Tuckey says a majority of the facility’s 81 residents received a shot in the first clinic held with Walgreens last week. Most of them needed a family member or guardian to give consent for them.
