COVID-19 Vaccines: Phase 1B
Education-related personnel (district/charter/private/parochial/childcare staff)
The Delaware Division of Public Health (DPH) has adopted an ethical framework that guides decision-making for administration of the vaccines that are expected to be limited for the first several weeks. Vaccine administration to the public expands through the phases as vaccine becomes more available. Education-related personnel are eligible for the vaccine in Phase 1b.
Overarching goal: To vaccinate as many people who choose to be vaccinated as possible in a time-sensitive manner as a critical mitigation strategy in the COVID-19 pandemic response.
