Texas Governor Greg Abbott is extremely impressed with Tarrant County’s mass coronavirus vaccination efforts.
Abbott visited a vaccine site at the Arlington Expo Center today praising its efficiency and ability to quickly treat people.
The governor says over 802-thousand people have gotten the COVID inoculation with more than 80-thousand getting the second dose of the vaccine.
He calls it the fastest vaccination roll-out in Texas history, saying it’s remarkable how quickly people are getting treated because the vaccine was approved last month.
