Press Release of the Humboldt County Joint Information Center:
Humboldt County Public Health and other approved local vaccines administered 35,828 doses of COVID-19 vaccine as of 82 Tuesday, March 9th. This information is reflected in the weekly update of the Humboldt County Data Dashboard.
The Dashboard now contains information about Humboldt County residents who received one or more doses of COVID-19 vaccine. This new measure shows the count and percentage of the local population who have at least some degree of protection against the virus, which is currently 23,388 or 17.2%.
Other highlights include:
- 12,441 Humboldt County residents were fully vaccinated, representing 9.15% of the country’s total population.
- An additional 10,947 residents, or 8.05% of the country’s total population, are partially vaccinated.
- About 41% of the province’s residents are 75 years and older are fully vaccinated.
Today, the “Current Hospital Information” section of the Data Dashboard will be removed due to declining hospitalizations and admissions of intensive care units related to COVID-19. Public health officials call it another sign that the province is possibly moving past the worst part of the pandemic, while noting that hospital capacity information could be added in the event of another increase in hospitalizations.
To access the Dashboard, go to humboldtgov.org/Dashboard. Visit humboldtgov.org/VaccineData to see only the vaccine data.
