The 6 Phases of the Vaccine Distribution
Many people want to be at the front of the line when it comes time to receive the vaccine. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has met and issued guidance on who should receive the vaccine first. Similarly, the Maryland Department of Health has a committee to direct how the vaccine should be distributed in Maryland. At this time the CCDOH has created Phase 1A, 1B, 1C, 2A, 2B and 3. CCDOH is following CDC and state guidelines for the administration of the vaccine. As more vaccine is made available additional groupings will be added until everyone is covered. If you are not sure if you are in one of the currently eligible phases, there is a more detailed definition below.
Phase 1A includes:
- Healthcare workers
- Residents and staff of nursing homes
- First responders, public safety, corrections
Phase 1B includes:
- Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities
- Assisted living, independent living, behavioral health and developmentally disabled group homes, and other congregate facilities
- Adults age 75 and older
- Education and continuity of government
We are currently in Phase 1C.
Phase 1C includes:
- Adults ages 65-74
- Essential workers in lab services, agriculture, manufacturing, postal service, etc.
Phase 2A includes:
- Adults ages 60 and up
Marylanders ages 16+ with underlying medical conditions and with disabilities who are receiving SSI or SSDI benefits, Maryland Medicaid EID individuals, Maryland Medicaid REM recipients, and Marylanders receiving TDAP benefits.
