Some Triad school districts are making plans to vaccinate teachers.
It s the next step in the vaccine phases and some districts like Davie County aren t wasting any time immunizing staff.
The district says it will start next week on January 27.
Winston-Salem/Forsyth and Rockingham County Schools also are strategizing on how to vaccinate staff.
Other districts, like Guilford County Schools, are waiting for more information. Counties will likely move at different paces.
The latest deaths increase the county s total to 259 since mid-March.
Forsyth reported 223 new cases of COVID-19 on Thursday, following up on 256 reported Wednesday.
The overall number of cases in Forsyth is at 25,696, with the daily high of 430 cases reported Jan. 9.
DHHS lists COVID-19 cases and deaths on the day they are confirmed by medical providers and public health officials, so individuals may have been infected or died days before their cases are counted.

The department s schedule for vaccination appointments is full through Jan. 26.
Shots are available to those 65 and older and to health care workers.
The city manager, council and members of the Citizen Police Review Board would get the right to view police body camera footage, under one of the legislative proposals the Winston-Salem City Council wants the N.C. General Assembly to enact.
On Monday, the council passed wish lists of legislation at both the state and federal levels that the city would like to see passed.
Under current North Carolina law, police bodycam footage can be released only on the order of a court.
The legislation the city wants passed is similar to a bill filed in 2019 by Forsyth County s two senators in the N.C. General Assembly, Joyce Krawiec and Paul Lowe. That bill never made it out of committee.
