After going a week without any COVID-related deaths in the district, the Lake Cumberland District Health Department (LCDHD) announced Thursday the death of a 71-year-old Wayne County resident who had been hospitalized.
Before that, the most recent deaths reported within the 10-county district were two Pulaski residents who were announced on April 8: An 88-year-old and a 92-year-old, both of whom had been hospitalized.
Earlier this week, LCDHD announced that it had temporarily suspended administering the Johnson & Johnson vaccine âin an abundance of cautionâ after reports emerged that at least six people across the U.S. developed a rare type of blood clot after receiving the shot.
