Walgreens' vaccinators will administer the second dose of the coronavirus vaccine to long term care residents and staff at the Bluffs Tuesday.

The Bluffs executive director, Roystan Pais, says between 75 and 80 percent of residents received their first dose of the vaccine on Dec. 29.

Those who did not receive their first dose in December will have the opportunity to get that Tuesday.

Data from The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services shows 10 residents at the Bluffs have died as a result of COVID-19.
