The City is working closely with County and health care officials to ensure an effective vaccination program. The phased approach detailed below prioritizes our most vulnerable neighbors and those at highest risk of exposure.

Due to a limited supply of doses, not everyone who is eligible will receive the vaccine immediately. In this COVID-19 vaccine edition of the newsletter, please read on for the following topics:
