SWVA health districts to expand vaccinations to residents 65 and older, vaccine supplies to remain limited

The Cumberland Plateau, Lenowisco, and Mount Rogers Health Districts in SWVA will start to vaccinate residents 65 and older on Monday.

All three districts, despite the expansion of age eligibility, say vaccine supply will remain limited, as Virginia will receive approximately just 100,000 doses per week likely through the end of February.

Mount Rogers will receive two percent of the available dose supplies, while Cumberland Plateau and Lenowisco will receive just one percent.
