\nGovernor Andy Beshear gave an update on the coronavirus outbreak in Kentucky Thursday, confirming that 11 shipments of the Pfizer vaccine have been approved for hospitals in the state.<\/p>\n

The governor said three hospitals in Louisville, including UofL Hospital, Norton Healthcare and Baptist Health. Norton will receive two of the 975-unit shipments, while UofL Hospital and Baptist will receive one shipment each.<\/p>\n

Beshear said the hospitals chosen for the first shipment of units were chosen because they have the capacity to hold the Pfizer vaccines in \u201cultralow cold storage.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first doses of the vaccine are planned to go to long-term care facilities and healthcare workers and could be administered as early are December 15.<\/p>\n

The governor announced 3,895 new COVID-19 cases Thursday along with 34 additional deaths. The positivity rate now stands at 10.07% with 113 of the 120 counties in the red zone.<\/p>\n
