Nearly 17,000 Pennsylvania residents were vaccinated for covid-19 since Monday, Health Secretary Rachel Levine said Tuesday afternoon. That puts the statewide total at 311,477 total doses administered across the state.
Pennsylvania officials provided an update on the state’s progress vaccinating members of Phase 1A in the federal guidelines, which includes health care workers and residents and staff of long-term care facilities.
Secretary Alex Azar of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said earlier in the day that states should begin moving to vaccinate people 65 years or older a portion of Phase 1B.
Levine said more than 250,000 Pennsylvanians have received one dose of the Pfizer BioNTech or Moderna vaccines, and more than 30,000 people have been fully vaccinated.
