Massachusetts has surpassed a grim milestone: More than 1 million coronavirus cases have been confirmed in the state:
Similar spikes in cases are being seeing across New England, despite the region having some of the country's highest vaccination rates. Hospitals are filling up. Mask mandates are returning. More restaurants are closing due to coronavirus cases, and a growing number of universities are requiring students get booster shots.
The majority of new confirmed cases in the past two weeks are in people ages 20 to 39, the state said. The home of the Boston Red Sox should start administering vaccines Jan. 6, including booster shots, and will have the capacity to give out 1,300 jabs per day, according to a statement from the state Executive Office of Health and Human Services.
Mass vaccination clinics are scheduled to open Jan. 5 at the Melnea Cass Recreation Complex in Roxbury and at North Shore Community College in Lynn, and at 2005 Bay Street in Taunton on Jan. 6.
