A total of 2,392 residents have received at least one dose of the vaccine.
DSHS developed a dashboard, which it updates daily, to track the vaccination progress.
Copperas Coveâs Emergency Management Coordinator, Gary Young, said his message to those wanting to get vaccinated is simple.

Currently, the state is distributing the vaccine to those in Phase 1A and Phase 1B in the distribution plan.
