Island health agents reported 32 new cases of Covid-19 from last week, as cases keep trending downward and vaccination efforts churn ahead.

As the Island’s vaccine supply grows, demand for vaccinations on the Vineyard has declined, hospital officials confirmed Wednesday, echoing trends around the state and country.

Covid-19 vaccine doses are in good supply on the Vineyard right now, after a dip in availability that sent many Islanders to the mainland for their first jabs earlier this month.

Individuals who received their first Covid-19 vaccine off-Island can now schedule their second vaccine shot on-Island.

With Covid-19 case rates on the wane and vaccination rates waxing strongly, Gov. Charlie Baker this week eased the state mask mandate and laid out the last phase of a reopening schedule.

Dukes County and the Communication Ambassador Partnership of Martha’s Vineyard are hosting an online public forum to discuss the Covid-19 vaccine on Wednesday.
