One nursing home won t see the vaccine until Jan. 15, another won t have all of its people vaccinated until mid-February and a couple others are still waiting to hear when their residents and staff will be vaccinated.
A spokesperson for the state s COVID-19 Command Center said vaccinations clinics are scheduled over the next several weeks, but didn t answer the reason as to why some long-term care facilities won t see the vaccine for weeks.
Phase 1 of the vaccine rollout in Massachusetts, which is expected to go into February, includes long-term care facilities as second in line behind clinical and COVID-facing health care workers.
