Task Force: More than 16 percent of Riley County residents have received vaccine

Members of the Manhattan Area Recovery Task Force met via Zoom Thursday. (Screenshot) Nearly 1 in 5 Riley County residents have received at least one dose of the coronavirus vaccine. As of Friday, more than 5,800 were fully vaccinated and an additional 5,800 receiving their first shot. Riley County Public Information Officer Alice Massimi addressed members of the Manhattan Area Recovery Task Force Thursday. “These are individuals that have been vaccinated by Riley County Health Department or our partners at Stone Creek, Lafene and others because we have given them some of our allotment we have received from KDHE,” she said. Local pharmacies, including Dillon’s, Hy-Vee and Walgreens are offering vaccines as well. Their data is not included in the county’s official numbers, meaning the nearly 16 percent of those who’ve received the Moderna vaccine could in fact be even higher.
