Gov. Ned Lamont speaking to a crowd outside of Waterbury City Hall Thursday, Feb. 25.
Gov. Ned Lamont on Thursday defended his plan to break from federal guidance and roll out COVID vaccines by age group only, and he suggested those who disagree with his approach should take their complaints to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
At a press event in Waterbury on Thursday morning designed to detail his plan to offer the vaccination to school staff beginning Monday Lamont was asked about a federal complaint filed by Disability Rights Connecticut that claims the state’s age-based rollout is violating federal laws.
