CONNECTICUT A lot more doses of coronavirus vaccine, many with a new brand name on the label, will be available in Connecticut next week, according to Gov. Ned Lamont.
Pending authorization by the US Food and Drug Administration, the state will receive 30,000 doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. The state Department of Public Health could accept delivery as early as this weekend.
Another 100,000 doses of the Moderna and Pfizer medicines are already in the pipeline for delivery next week. On Twitter, Lamont said the unprecedented influx of vaccines was big news in our efforts to speed up distribution. Previously, the governor had blamed the slow rollout of the medicine on the scarcity of the new vaccine.

It’s not something people think about until they’re there. But many in wheelchairs face accessibility issues wherever they go, particularly when it comes to housing.
There’s walk-ups without elevator access. Narrow door frames you can’t fit your chair through. Carpeting that makes it hard to move your chair around.
Between July 1, 2019 and June 30, 2020, the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities had over 100 housing complaints filed with them. Of these, 52 were related to physical disability while another seven were related to guide dog access.
