According to CNN, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) plans to meet next week to discuss who will get the coronavirus vaccine first. Members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices received notice they’ll convene November 23 for five hours, committee member Dr. William Schaffner said.
Dr. Anthony Fauci told the news outlet on Sunday (November 15) he expects the first vaccinations to occur “towards the latter part of December,” but there won’t be enough for everyone, so priorities must be set. Health care workers, essential workers, those over age 65 and people with underlying conditions will be first in line.
