Following three consecutive reports where the number of COVID -19 vaccines administered was over 1,000, the Manitowoc County Health Department reported a severe dip in that number.
In their update yesterday (April 13th), the Health Department reported only 301 shots were given, with 209 of them being first dose shots. This brings the total number of shots administered up to 48,633, with 29,605 of those being first dose shots.
There is no word on if this is connected to the recent suspension of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
