LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) â Public and private school personnel throughout Kentucky are deciding whether they want to take a new COVID-19 vaccine, possibly in a matter of weeks, as school systems prepare extensive inoculation plans for their employees.
School districts have been asked to submit lists of all workers who want to take a COVID-19 vaccine to the Kentucky Department for Public Health by Dec. 30.
John Wright, community relations specialist for Hardin County Schools, said the district sent a survey gauging interest in taking a COVID-19 vaccine early Thursday and had received 500 responses within about 10 minutes.
About half of the staff at Oldham County Schools, which has some 2,000 employees, has replied to a similar survey so far, and Superintendent Greg Schultz says around 90% of respondents so far want a vaccine whenever the district receives its allotment of doses.
