Wake Forest Baptist Health infectious disease expert Dr. Christopher Ohl said rural counties have a lower vaccination rate than urban areas. Author: Marissa Tansino (WFMY News2) Published: 12:19 PM EDT May 20, 2021 Updated: 12:19 PM EDT May 20, 2021
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. Hundreds of Triad teens have been vaccinated over the last week since the FDA and CDC gave the group the green light to get Pfizer s vaccine.

When seeking knowledge and/or improvement, itâs always a good idea to get input from others. Thatâs what the Arts Council of Winston-Salem and Forsyth County did recently by commissioning an extensive survey to help it prepare to resume its mission in the inevitable post-COVID era. The results were enlightening â and some were surprising. Theyâll assist not only the Arts Council, but any artist or artistic organization that wants to be ready to open their doors again.

Forsyth reported 27 cases, the lowest daily count since 13 were reported on April 6.
The average daily case count in Forsyth has been at 67 over the past two weeks. That was up from 45 in the previous two-week period, according to Forsyth health director Joshua Swift.
Overall, there have been 35,450 cases in Forsyth during the pandemic.
No additional COVID-19 related deaths were reported, with the total remaining at 374.
DHHS lists COVID-19 cases and deaths on the day they are confirmed by medical providers and public-health officials so people may have been infected or have died days before their cases were counted.
