For the first time, Albany County is in line to receive a shipment of Johnson and Johnson COVID-19 vaccine.
County Executive Dan McCoy said Monday that 500 doses of the one-shot vaccine are on their way and that they'll likely be given to people who are homebound. Over 28 % of Albany County residents have received at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine in recent weeks. The area with the second-highest vaccination rate is Saratoga County with just under 28 %.
