SEATTLE (AP) — Gov. Jay Inslee says the first COVID-19 vaccinations in Washington state could be administered Tuesday. On Sunday, the first shipments of a virus vaccine for widespread use in the United States were sent from Michigan to distribution centers. About 3 million doses were expected to be sent out. Inslee said at a Sunday news conference that the first shipments of the vaccine should arrive by Monday. The initial 62,000 doses in Washington state will go to health workers and people in long-term care facilities. The governor said it will be months before it is available to much of the broader population.
