Vaccines are being given.  Over 90,000 as of Jan. 7 of 396,350 available.

It is a relief isn’t it?  People are receiving the vaccine.  The Department of Health will be keeping track of how many doses have been given and you can see that here on the department of health website.   We are in Phase 1a.

In talking to senior living, assisted living and memory care options over the last week, some have received their first doses of the vaccine.  And, many have the date of first vaccine scheduled.   When a facility vaccinates their residents and staff, they will be also offering the vaccine to Essential Caregivers.

Facilities are communicating to their residents and staff about the vaccine .  They are also communicating  to their prospect lists in hopes that people will feel more comfortable with a move.

Check Websites for Updated Information

The Department of Health has asked facilities to track any adverse reactions.   More information will become available over time. There is information being updated on the vaccine at the CDC site   Keep checking back for the most up to date information on both the MN department of health site and the CDC.
