With the Huron County health department looking to get school staff members vaccinated, some districts are relieved that they ve made the cut while others are frustrated it took this long.
In the state’s prioritization schedule for who gets COVID-19 vaccines, school and child care staff are in Phase 1B, along with essential frontline workers, corrections staff, and those 75 years and older not covered by Phase 1A of the schedule.
Bad Axe Superintendent Greg Newland said that he was informed by the health department that any school staff wishing to be vaccinated, whether they be teachers, bus drivers, or custodians, would have to register through the health department’s website, similar to what groups who already received the vaccine did.
