ISDH Releases Draft Of COVID-19 Vaccine Distribution Plan

The final phase of the plan will make vaccinations available to the general population.

(Indianapolis, Ind.) – The Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) has recently released a draft of its three-phase plan for distributing a COVID-19 vaccine when it becomes available.

According to the draft plan, all unpaid and paid health care workers and people with underlying health conditions that put them at high risk of COVID-19 complications – including those ages 65 and older – will be the first to receive vaccinations.

Phase 2 of the distribution will target those living and working in correctional facilities, group homes or shelters, and other essential workers.

The final phase of the plan will make vaccinations available to the general population.

This COVID-19 vaccination plan is subject to change, as it has been submitted to federal health officials for approval.
