A massive effort is under way to vaccinate more than three million Missourians who are now eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. Local public health experts with the One for All Missouri campaign are urging Missourians to practice patience and continue taking steps to stop the spread of COVID-19 as the vaccine rollout continues.
- Missouri is currently vaccinating members of Phase 1A and Phase 1B, Tiers 1 and 2 of the state’s rollout process.
- This infographic outlines how different priority groups fit within the phases of Missouri’s rollout.
- Eligible Missourians should watch for updates on how they can receive their doses of the vaccine.
- Members of Phase 1A should look to their professional association for instructions.
- Members of Phase 1B, Tier 1 should look to their employer and local public health department for instructions.
- Members of Phase 1B, Tier 2 should look to their care providers for instructions.
- Increasing the supply of available vaccine doses and distributing them to these priority groups will take time.
- State government officials, public health experts and health systems are working together to plan for vaccinations.
- Missourians across all phases of distribution are encouraged to be patient and watch for vaccination updates from their health providers and local public health departments.
- We need to continue taking steps to stop the spread while we wait for most of the population to get vaccinated.
- Protect yourself and others by continuing safety steps like mask wearing, physical distancing and frequent hand washing.
- Testing and quarantining remain a key part of our defense against the virus. Check for community testing events in your area if you are experiencing symptoms or have been exposed to COVID-19.
