Coloradans ages 60 and older can begin receiving vaccinations next week, with the potential for inoculation efforts to reach the general public as soon as late April, Gov. Jared Polis announced Friday. Along with the 60-and-older population, Colorado will open up vaccinations to those who have two or more of certain risk factors, and agricultural and grocery store workers as soon as on March 5. That makes more than 950,000 additional residents eligible for vaccine, said Scott Bookman, the state's COVID incident commander. Then, the state will begin vaccinating its last priority groups ahead of the general public. As soon as March 21, vaccines will open up to those over 49 years old; some higher education staff and faculty; restaurant and food service workers; essential workers within the postal service and manufacturing industries; faith leaders; frontline journalists; and workers within public health, transportation and health care for the homeless.
