More cases of the highly infectious COVID strain are threatening the state’s efforts to contain the disease, while older adults are still struggling to make appointments to get vaccinated, the governor said Monday.
However, Gov. Ned Lamont predicted all residents 75 and over could be vaccinated within three weeks.
“We are racing to get as many people vaccinated as quickly as we can ahead of what could be this super-infectious strain,” Lamont said after health officials identified four new cases bringing the statewide total to eight of the highly contagious United Kingdom variant.
