So far, at least 8,490 Idahoans have received a COVID vaccine.
The state’s positivity rate, or the average number of tests coming back positive, dropped in the last reporting period from 19.9 percent to 15.5 percent.
Starting Monday, CVS Health Care will begin administering vaccines to about 10 thousand residents and staff at 75 long-term care facilities in Idaho. More than 500 people in Idaho’s long-term care facilities have already died of COVID-19.
