Vaccine Delivery Delayed

Covid-19 vaccine doses that were expected to arrive in Colorado this week have been delayed due to the winter storm that has impacted a distribution hub in Tennessee.   

The state health department says it is unknown when the shipments, which include 133,000 doses, will arrive.  The doses were initially expected to arrive Tuesday and Thursday.   

The agency said it is working with vaccine providers and local public health departments to make sure appointments and clinics for the shots aren’t canceled this week.   

So far, 705,000 people in Colorado have received their first dose of Covid-19 vaccine and 314,000 people have gotten their second shot.
