Guilford County Health & Human Services registered nurse Sydney Robinson administers a COVID-19 vaccine to a client at the Mount Zion Baptist church vaccination clinic in Greensboro on Thursday.
As North Carolina moves towards the next phase of COVID-19 vaccination, questions linger about the logistics of the rollout prioritization, especially for the state’s frontline essential workers.
At present, only members of the state’s first two priority groups, health care workers and people 65 and older, are eligible for vaccination by state providers. Long-term care facility staff and residents are eligible through a federal vaccination program run by Walgreen’s and CVS.
