During a weekly press conference, Gov. Carney said that the state is prioritizing administering the second dose of Covid vaccine to nursing home residents and health care workers – and will delay vaccinations for people with “high risk” medical conditions including intellectual and developmental disabilities and people living in congregate settings like group homes. It will likely not be until mid-March, WBOC reports, that Covid vaccines will be made available to this population.
