President Biden urged state officials Tuesday to give school employees priority access to COVID-19 vaccinations, setting a goal that all educators receive a shot by month’s end.
Biden’s directive drew immediate praise from teachers and Democratic leaders who had urged Governor Charlie Baker to move educators to the front of the line. But it raised concerns that doing so could delay distribution for other groups given limited vaccine supply.
“Vaccinating educators is important,” said Colin Killick, executive director of the Malden-based Disability Policy Consortium. “What we’re focused on is that Massachusetts is behind more than 25 other states in the level of priority it is giving to people with disabilities. That’s what needs to be corrected.”
