RENO, Nev. (AP) Nevada health officials are redoubling efforts to make it easier to get COVID-19 shots with new drive-thru clinics in working-class neighborhoods in Las Vegas and expanded outreach to Reno s Hispanic community to try to reverse a decline in vaccinations statewide.
Down 31% since April 15, the 14-day rolling average in the number of vaccine doses administered on a daily basis in Nevada dropped from a record-high of 25,331 on April 14 to 17,436 as of Sunday, the state reported on Monday.
It s the lowest average rate of daily vaccinations since early March and the first time it s dropped below 18,000 since March 10. I think we expected to see this gradual decline of daily immunizations administered, said Karissa Loper, chief of the state Bureau of Child, Family & Community Wellness. We need to work further with our communities in Nevada to ensure equity and inclusion and broad distribution for the vaccine.
