Kentucky’s deescalation of COVID-19 cases continued Thursday, with the lowest number of new cases on a Thursday since October 8, 2020.
The state is reporting 963 new virus cases, with a positivity rate of 7.07%. Thirty-seven Kentuckians died as a result of the virus Thursday, including western Kentuckians from Caldwell, Christian, Graves, Hopkins, Logan, Marshall, Muhlenberg and Todd counties.
Governor Andy Beshear announced two western Kentucky medical centers will serve as regional COVID-19 vaccination sites. The facilities are the Trigg County Hospital and the Crittenden Community Hospital. Beshear hit back at criticism that western Kentucky vaccination options are limited. He said federal programs coupled with expanded state vaccination sites mean plentiful opportunities for western Kentuckians to get a shot.
