Michigan makes big strides on nursing home COVID-19 vaccinations

Every person who wants a coronavirus vaccine who lives in a skilled nursing facility in Michigan has had the chance to get at least a first dose, said Dr. Joneigh Khaldun, the state s chief medical executive, in written testimony Tuesday submitted to the House Energy and Commerce Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee.   As of Jan. 28, 104,209 doses of COVID-19 vaccines had been injected into the arms of residents and staff, she said.  And by the end of February, Khaldun said she expects all of the staff and residents at the state s 4,400 long-term care facilities, which include nursing homes, assisted living and skilled nursing facilities as well as adult foster care homes and homes for the aged, will have had a chance to get at least a first dose.
