Earlier updates:
Update: Thursday, Dec. 31, 7:01 p.m.
The state has released new data about how COVID-19 vaccines are being allocated.
Of the over 64,000 doses that have arrived in New Hampshire, about a third have actually been administered to high-risk health care workers, first responders, and people associated with long-term care facilities.
That means that about 18 percent of the state s highest-risk population has been vaccinated so far. The state says it hopes to have all of them immunized with at least the first of the two shots by the end of January.
Another 17,000 shots are expected to arrive next week.

Dartmouth College outlines losses due to pandemic
Staff Report
Modified: 12/29/2020 9:26:52 PM
HANOVER Dartmouth College is projecting that the COVID-19 pandemic will have a $91 million impact on its fiscal year 2021 budget, but that budget cuts and the use of some reserve funds are helping to close the shortfall.
With the college only allowing about half of undergraduates on campus for the fall and winter terms and offering many classes remotely, Dartmouth Chief Financial Officer Michael Wagner this week said via email that the college is seeing a shortfall of about $46 million in tuition, room and board and fees.
That includes factoring in $18 million in savings on scholarships that weren’t needed, though the college is also budgeting $8 million in additional scholarship payments to meet an increased need for help among students whose families have lost jobs in the pandemic.
