About 1,000 Union County School Employees Get An Early Shot At COVID-19 Vaccines

/
About 1,000 employees of Union County Public Schools are getting vaccinated against COVID-19 Friday and Saturday, an option that's not yet available to most frontline workers in the state.
The school district started working with the Union County Health Department earlier this month to schedule vaccinations for staff who are 50 and older. That’s almost 2,000 of the district’s 5,000 employees, according to UCPS spokeswoman Tahira Stalberte.
In mid-January, North Carolina changed its priority list to put people 65 and older ahead of younger frontline workers, including teachers and support staff. Stalberte said the district and the health department agreed to stick with the plan that had already been laid out for school staff.
