'Persistent gap' nationwide in COVID plans for people with disabilities, advocates say

Title (Dublin Core)

'Persistent gap' nationwide in COVID plans for people with disabilities, advocates say

Description (Dublin Core)

This story resonated with me. While I was able to get the Covid-19 shot because I am a teacher, my disabled husband is not covered in any Tiers for the shot. We have no idea when he might be able to get the Covid-19 vaccine and it is scary for us. Why on earth would they not consider such a vulnerable population as a priority for the Covid-19 vaccine.
