As North Dakota health officials continue to move through the various tiers of the 1-B vaccination group for COVID-19 many people are wondering when the state will work itself into the 1-C category. Those are essential workers and people of any age at increased risk for the coronavirus.
Immunization Program Manager Molly Howell says with so many variables it’s a really tough prediction to make. “Not knowing quantities of vaccine moving forward and uptake. I kind of have been saying we will be towards the end of 1-B by the end of March.”
Howell says she would also like to know being a member of the 1-C group.
At last count North Dakota has administered 162,038 doses of vaccine. That’s a one dose coverage rate of 13.7%.
