3:15 PM: Governor Inslee has just announced tentative dates for expanding COVID-19 vaccination eligibility in our state. They’re tentative, he said, because it depends on vaccine supply meeting (or beating) current projections. They include (but are not limited to):
*March 22nd – second tier of Phase 1B, also to include “critical” workers including grocery, farm, food processing, public transit, law enforcement, firefighters
*April 12th – ages 50+ with two or more co-morbidities
*April 26th – ages 16+ with (CORRECTED) two or more co-morbidities
More details to come – we’ll link and update as soon as it’s available in writing. The governor also spent part of his briefing (update: archived video will be here soon) urging that schools get back to in-person learning, insisting that it can be done safely; we’ll have a separate update on the Seattle Public Schools situation later.
ADDED 4:08 PM: Here’s the governor’s graphic with the key points we noted above:
ADDED 6:03 PM: Here’s the state document with full details about current and future (tentative) expansion.
