Though the FDA approved Pfizer’s coronavirus vaccine late Friday, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear said it will still be some time before it’s widely available in the commonwealth.
In an emailed release on Saturday, Beshear reiterated his previous intention to prioritize vaccinating front line health care workers and people in long-term health care facilities.
“It is morally imperative that we get the vaccine to the most vulnerable Kentuckians first,” he said.
“In the meantime, please keep doing what you know is right: wear your mask, keep your distance from others and don’t have large gatherings.”
