The Orange County Health Department shared its COVID-19 vaccine distribution plan for residents, a phased rollout of the drug mirroring that of North Carolina’s health department.
With the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine earning approval from the federal Food and Drug Administration Friday, North Carolina is expected to receive thousands of initial doses. Vaccination, however, will not be immediately available to all people, with Orange County saying it will prioritize health care workers who face regular, high risk of exposure to the virus.
