Front-line health care workers, nursing home staffers and nursing home residents could get COVID-19 immunizations mid-December. However, most Hoosiers will likely remain unvaccinated for a while. The drafted vaccine allocation plan, released in October, calls for a three-phased approach. Phase 1-A will begin after the federal government approves a vaccine candidate for emergency use. People in health care settings will receive the vaccination first. Other essential workers and people at high risk will be vaccinated during phase 1-B. Open access to the vaccine will be available during the final phase.
