Right now it's difficult to determine how many fewer Missouri residents are not being vaccinated due to the CDC FDA, and the Missouri Department of Health earlier this week pulling the plug on the Johnson & Johnson One Shot COVID-19 vaccine shot from being used. In previous weeks in Joplin, there was a consistent decline in the number of new cases, but according to the latest data from all things Missouri.org, those numbers are now flat. Joplin is averaging about four new cases per day, with a high of 11 new cases one day this week. State why there is over a 13% increase in the number of new COVID cases, and 10 deaths due to the disease in the last seven days. Nearly one third of Missouri and TAV received at least one COVID-19 vaccine shot, with about 22% completed in their calculations. For KRPS, I'm Fred Fletcher-Fierro in Web City.
