CORNER
CORNER OF
CORNER OF YOUR SCREEN AND A RICH NAME. >> MORE TONIGHT ON THE INCENTIVE TO GET A SHOT.
ALL THESE TENTS IN THE PARKING
LOT ACROSS THE STREET
FROM MINNEAPOLIS MOTOR SPEEDWAY
WILL BECOME VACCINATION
STATIONS. THE RACE TO VACCINATE
HOOSIERS AGAINST COVID-19
CONTINUES 16TH IN GEORGETOWN
THROUGHOUT THE MONTH OF MAY.
THE SPEEDWAY WILL HOST MONDAY
MASS CLINICS IN THE PARKING LOT
ON 16TH STREET ACROSS FROM THE
MAIN TUNNEL GATE OFFERING THE
ONE SHOT JOHNSON AND JOHNSON OR
THE TWO DOSE PFIZER VACCINE.
ANYONE WHO GETS A SHOT GETS A T
SHIRT JOINING THE CLUB WITH
SOME 70000 HOOSIERS VACCINATED
AT IM'S. >> WHEN I GOT MY
OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE MY SHOT I
SAID THAT HAS TO BE SPECIAL. SO
I GRABBED MY BASED CAR THAT I
WANT TO 2013 DROVE THE ENTIRE
THE ENTIRE WAY AND DID IT AND
ACTUALLY WAS A SUCCESS WITH
EVERYBODY. >> THEY WERE HERE.
IT WAS PRETTY COOL. I'M TONY
CANNON. YOU KNOW ME AS A
RACECAR DRIVER. YOU KNOW INDY
500 CHAMPION MORE IMPORTANT I'M
A HUSBAND AND A FATHER OF FOUR
SO TO KEEP MY FAMILY SAFE I GOT
THE CORVETTE NINETEEN VACCINE
AS SOON AS I GOT THE 2013 INDY
500 CHAMPION TONY ALLEN HAS
RECORDED A PUBLIC SERVICE
ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE STATE
HEALTH DEPARTMENT SO CHARLIE
KIMBALL WHO HAS TYPE ONE
DIABETES AND GOT THE SHOT BUT I
TRUSTED THE SCIENCE JUST LIKE I
TRUST THE ENGINEERS WHEN I TURN
INTO TURN WANT IT 230 MILES AN
HOUR AND TRUST PHYSICS TO HOLD
ME ONTO THE TRACK. I TRUST THE
SCIENCE OF THE VACCINE AND THE
FACT THAT IT GETS US BACK
CLOSER TO NORMAL. >> THE PFIZER
VACCINE IS EXPECTED TO BE
APPROVED SOON FOR CHILDREN DOWN
TO 12 YEARS OLD. >> SO AS WE'RE
LOOKING TO VACCINATE YOUNGER
GROUPS OF HOOSIERS, WE HOPE
THAT YOU WILL CONSIDER WHAT
BEING FULLY VACCINATED MEANS.
IT MEANS YOU'LL BE PROTECTED
FROM A DISEASE THAT HAS HAD
SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES FOR
THOUSANDS OF HOOSIERS FANS
COMING INSIDE THE TRACK IN MAY
CAN GET A VACCINATION AT A
FIRST AID STATION ANY DAY. CARS
ARE ON TRACK. >> OK, LET'S SHOW
YOU THE DATES ON MAY 10TH,
SEVENTEENTH AND TWENTY FOURTH
YOU CAN GET THE JOHNSON AND
JOHNSON AND PFIZER VACCINE
FROM NINE A.M. TO SEVEN PM NOW
FROM MAY 11 THROUGH THE 16TH
THEY'LL GIVE OUT THE SECOND
DOSE OF THE MEDICINE VACCINE TO
ANYBODY WHO GOT THE FIRST DOSE
OF IMS LAST MONTH. THE PFIZER
VACCINE IS ALSO GOING TO BE
AVAILABLE TO ANYONE SEEKING A
FIRST. THEN ON MAY 21ST A
SECOND DOSE OF THE PFIZER
VACCINE IS GOING TO BE
AVAILABLE FOR PEOPLE WHO
ATTENDED FAMILY DAY BACK IN
APRIL. ALL OF THOSE CLINICS ARE
GOING TO BE HELD IN THE INDY
CAR PARKING LOT THAT'S RIGHT
ACROSS FROM GATE TO OF IMPD
THAT'S ON 16TH STREET. >> SO IF
YOU ADD IT UP FOR MORE THAN
THIRTY SEVEN PERCENT OF ALL
HOOSIERS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE FOR
THE COVID-19 VACCINE NOW ARE
CONSIDERED FULLY VACCINATED. SO
NOW THERE ARE OVER TWO MILLION
PEOPLE HERE IN THE STATE
OF INDIANA FULLY VACCINATED.
TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY NINE
THOUSAND THOSE WHO ARE FULLY
VACCINATED GOT THEIR VACCINE IN
MARION COUNTY NOW THE SECOND
HIGHEST COUNTY VACCINATION RATE
IN THE STATE OF INDIANA IS
HAMILTON COUNTY. THAT'S WHERE
THERE WERE A TOTAL OF ONE
HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE THOUSAND
DOSES ADMINISTERED AND BECAUSE
OF THE VACCINATION, PARTLY THE
NUMBER OF CORONAVIRUS CASES ALL
ACROSS THE COUNTRY CONTINUES TO
DROP. HOSPITALIZATION RATES ARE
ALSO DOWN IN MAJOR CITIES AS
MORE AND MORE AMERICANS ARE
GETTING THE VACCINE NOW. >> SO
FAR NEARLY ONE HUNDRED AND
FIFTY MILLION AMERICANS HAVE
RECEIVED AT LEAST ONE DOSE
OF THE VACCINE AND ALL OF THIS
IS MAKING AMERICANS FEEL
OPTIMISTIC AND MANY COMMUNITIES
ARE NOW BEGINNING TO LIFT THOSE
RESTRICTIONS WITH CROWDS
STARTING TO GATHER AT
BUSINESSES AND BEACHES, NORMAL
IS SLOWLY COMING BACK INTO
FOCUS. LARGER CROWDS GETTING
BACK TO STADIUMS AND ARENAS AT
METLIFE FIELD TODAY A MASS
REUNION FOR CLOSE TO THREE
DOZEN FAMILIES WHO HADN'T BEEN
TOGETHER IN MORE THAN A YEAR.
SHOPS AND RESTAURANTS ARE
FILLING UP THE LIGHTS ON
BROADWAY THAT SHINE AGAIN COME
SEPTEMBER AS NEW CASES
OF CULBERT AND HOSPITALIZED
CONTINUE TO DROP FOR THE FIRST
TIME IN FIFTEEN MONTHS. >> THIS
CALIFORNIA HOSPITAL DOESN'T
HAVE A SINGLE COVID PATIENT. WE
PEAKED AT TWO HUNDRED AND
SEVENTEEN PATIENTS IN EARLY
JANUARY AND THERE'S BEEN KIND
OF A STEADY DECLINE SINCE THEN.
I ACTUALLY DIDN'T THINK WE
WOULD EVER GET TO ZERO BUT
THERE IS ANOTHER DISTURBING
DOWNWARD TREND AFTER PEAKING AT
MORE THAN FOUR MILLION DOSES A
DAY IN APRIL, THE NUMBER
OF PEOPLE ROLLING UP THEIR
SLEEVES FOR THE VACCINE IS NOW
FALLING OFF DRAMATICALLY. >>
SOME PEOPLE HAVE SAID THEY JUST
DON'T STRESS IT TO TRY AND WIN
OVER THOSE WHO ARE HESITANT. >>
BUSINESSES ARE GIVING AWAY
FREEBIES AND COUPONS. THE NFL
GIVING VACCINATED FANS A CHANCE
AT FREE SUPER BOWL TICKETS. AND
NEW YORK IS PROMISING A DOSE
OF THE JOHNSON AND JOHNSON
VACCINE TO ANYONE WHO VISITS
THE CITY. >> WE WANT TO GO THE
EXTRA MILE, MAKE IT EASY FOR
TOURISTS IF THEY'RE HERE,
