Kentucky will be receiving additional funding to support the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines.
The funding was announced Monday by U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell. The $46.9 million came from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and gave the state broad flexibility in its use to establish the public health infrastructure necessary for administering them.
Senator McConnell previously that Kentucky received over $40 million for vaccine distribution from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
