The reason for this demographic data collection is down to vaccine administration logistics, Health Director Melanie Hutton said. We have been working with some local hospitals who might have extra (vaccine doses) to start with our health care workers, she said.
The state still is in the first phase of administering vaccines. That phase is broken down into two categories based on the state s COVID-19 vaccination plan. Category 1A is for health care workers who regularly are in contact with patients, such as at nursing homes or hospitals. Category 1B is for first responders and high-risk individuals, mostly those 65 and older.
