Only 35 Garth Brooks Fans Get Vaccines Before Concert

The Kansas City Health Department says only 35 of the more than 70,000 people who attended Garth Brooks' concert in Kansas City on Saturday took advantage of a chance to get a COVID-19 vaccine.

The health department ran the clinic for four hours before Saturday's concert, and offered a drawing for upgraded floor seats as an incentive. Brooks, who says he is fully vaccinated, has urged his fans to get the vaccine.

Maggie Green, a spokeswoman for the Kansas City manager's office, said the 35 people were in addition to 333 vaccinations the health department administered at various events and clinics last week.
