[Nodxa] Vaccine distribution schedule for Ohio

[Glenn Williams]

Hi again,

When I sent that news it was cut and pasted from an email from a mayor 
in Cuyahoga County and I did not realize it likely does not apply to 
other counties.  The missing details are now supplied here.

Dear Resident:

COVID Vaccine distribution plan for Ohio
Progress Update

Phase 1A - began 12/28-12/30 (at Shaker, Independence, & Westlake 
locations) and has continued on
select dates at the Cuyahoga County Fairgrounds. This Phase includes 
those in the following groups
who choose to be vaccinated:

         Healthcare workers and personnel who are routinely involved in 
the care of COVID-19 patients.
         Residents and staff in nursing homes.
         Residents and staff in assisted living facilities.
         Patients and staff at state psychiatric hospitals.
         People with developmental disabilities and those with mental 
health disorders, including
         substance use disorders, who live in group homes, residential 
facilities, or centers, and staff
         at those locations.
         Residents and staff at the two state-run homes for Ohio veterans.
         EMS responders.

Phase 1B - will begin on Tuesday, January 19th, and will include those 
in the following groups who
     choose to be vaccinated: These will be available to those who are 
80 years of age and older
     and who are not in long-term care facilities. The state expects to 
receive 100,000 doses that
     first week. With each following week the state hopes to open up 
vaccinations to those within
     the next five- year age group. For example, on Jan 25th, the state 
anticipates vaccinations
     will open up to those 75 years old and older. The following week it 
will open to people 70 and
     older, and the week of February 8th, vaccinations will be available 
to those 65 and older.
     During the week of January 25th - younger people with severe 
congenital, developmental, or
     early-onset medical disorders that make them particularly 
vulnerable - such as cerebral palsy;
     spina bifida; congenital heart disease; type 1 diabetes; inherited 
metabolic disorders; severe
     neurologic disorders including epilepsy; severe genetic disorders 
including Down Syndrome,
     Fragile X, Prader Willi Syndrome, Turner Syndrome; severe lung 
disease including cystic
     fibrosis and severe asthma; sickle cell anemia; and alpha- and 
beta-thalassemia. During the
     first week of February, the state's goal will be to begin 
vaccination of school personnel with
     the goal of having children begin full person or hybrid learning by 
March 1, 2021. Specific
     dates and locations for Phase 1B have not yet been announced, but 
updated information will
     likely be released to the press. All updated information is 
available at the State's website

     [ but  without timelines there  ].
