COVID-19 Vaccine Distribution Guidelines Proposed

The U.S. CDC proposed guidelines on August 26, 2020, for distributing a SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus vaccine in the USA. The guidelines were unveiled during a presentation at the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices meeting, which would prioritize healthcare workers, essential personnel, and vulnerable Americans, such as the elderly and those with underlying health conditions.

The CDC also said it is preparing for the possibility of distributing different kinds of coronavirus vaccines at the same time.
