A subcommittee of Connecticut’s vaccine advisory group on Tuesday recommended that the next wave of coronavirus vaccinations be allocated to frontline essential workers, residents of congregate settings and those aged 75 and older.
The phase will include teachers, grocery store workers, police officers, food service workers and sanitation workers, as well as with residents and staff of homeless shelters and prisons.
However, the subcommittee has yet to decide if the next phase will also include residents who are under the age of 75 but have underlying health conditions that place them at high-risk of serious illness from COVID-19.
