The Southern Nevada Health District is providing an update on COVID-19 vaccinations.
Mortuary workers will be among the last in Tier 2 to receive the COVID-19 vaccine — after essential retail workers, emergency road personnel and others.
The health district announced it received its first shipment of the Moderna vaccine, the second drug to win emergency authorization from the federal government.
With the first COVID-19 vaccine expected to arrive in Nevada on Monday, officials are making final preparations to distribute doses to health care workers.
