From the Palmetto State Teachers Association:
This morning, Governor McMaster and DHEC announced that individuals age 65 and older will now have access to the COVID-19 vaccine in South Carolina. Palmetto State Teachers Association believes this is an important action for protecting the most vulnerable citizens of our state, and we are encouraged that the supply of the vaccine has grown enough to make this action possible. However, as the vaccine supply grows, PSTA will continue to advocate for the Governor to grant priority access to the vaccine to the educators of our state. As we noted in a January 22 joint letter with The SCEA to the Governor, it is imperative for South Carolina educators to have vaccine access in order for all schools to offer the five day, face-to-face instructional model that the Governor has pushed for since last summer.
