NEWS on COVID-19 in Iowa: Iowa seniors, teachers, food workers could be next in line for COVID-19 vaccine
“After Iowa vaccinates nursing home residents and critical health care workers against the coronavirus, the state is likely to focus on protecting Iowans living in other kinds of group settings, people with chronic health problems and workers in certain professions — such as teachers, first-responders and food-production workers — the state’s draft vaccination plan says.
The 70-page plan, submitted to federal officials, is a work in progress.
It was released publicly Friday, a day after Gov. Kim Reynolds and other state leaders outlined how Iowa plans to distribute the first wave of up to 172,000 coronavirus vaccine doses this month.
The vaccinations are to begin quickly after the federal Food and Drug Administration gives permission. The initial stage of Iowa's effort will focus on protecting residents and staff of the state’s 436 nursing homes, which have accounted for 1,097 of the state’s 2,605 COVID-19 deaths. Health care workers who have direct exposure to the virus are also to be included the first vaccination priority group, the Iowa plan says.”
