CHARLESTON â West Virginia is aggressively providing the Covid-19 vaccine to all residents and staff at long-term care facilities in the state, with some facilities in this area already finished.
Gov. Jim Justice said during his pandemic briefing Friday that the state is not just planning to vaccinate the most vulnerable population, it is acting.
âWe will be done in a little over two weeks (vaccinating all residents and staff) from when the first shipment (of the vaccine) arrived in West Virginia,â he said, adding that about 8,000 doses were on their way to those facilities by Friday with more coming as the doses arrive in the state.
