With each passing day of the pandemic, more and more pictures of COVID-19 vaccination record cards circulate online from people who are happy to have received their first and final shots.
But, as vaccination efforts continue to ramp up, questions surrounding residency requirements are also circulating.
A big question for many is whether they have to live in the state they receive their vaccine in.
Moderna
In Minnesota, Michigan and Wisconsin, the answer is no.
In Minnesota, there are no residency requirements to get the vaccine, so those studying or working in Minnesota are eligible.
In Michigan, a similar scenario is playing out. Their department of health said that although they are prioritizing residents of Michigan, no shot in any arm is wasted. Therefore, they will vaccinate students, workers and so on.
