Massachusetts Covid vaccine eligibility

[redbird]

The state has now announced when people in different groups, including "everyone else at least 16 years old," will be eligible for the vaccine. Of note: Rather than grouping everyone under 65 as "gemeral public," they'll be making people between 60-64, and then 55-59, eligible a little sooner. Also of note, the supply is lagging behind eligibility, and they don't expect that to change.

That's roughly what we're doing in Ontario. Specific groups first (long-term care residents/workers, medical workers, Indigenous adults, etc), then going backwards in 5 year increments from 80+ down the line. I'm hopeful my mom (65) can be vaccinated by early June.
