COVID-19 vaccine: Will Framingham & Milford see extra supply?


In a week when the first COVID-19 vaccinations were administered in Massachusetts to front-line health care workers, there are questions over how the state plans to distribute extra doses of the vaccine to communities of color that have been battered by the pandemic.
Framingham and Milford are among those communities, as each has a sizable minority population that is experiencing skyrocketing COVID-19 infection rates.
Last week, Gov. Charlie Baker’s COVID-19 Vaccine Advisory Group announced plans for vaccine distribution, including an extra 20% supply to communities that suffered a disproportionate impact during the pandemic.

Health care workers administered the first COVID-19 vaccines in Massachusetts to their own on Tuesday. Doctors, nurses, cleaning staff and others stationed in COVID units, emergency rooms or other front-line positions received the injection after workers unpacked the frozen vaccine vials in a puff of cold mist.
The arrival of the vaccine, developed in record time by Pfizer and BioNTech, a German company with U.S. headquarters in Cambridge, has been met with jubilation from health experts. The beginning of these injections, they say, marks a big step toward ending the pandemic. ....

State-Run Data System Will Track Mass. Vaccine Patients And Remind Them When To Get Their 2nd Dose


After the 2009 H1N1 outbreak, Massachusetts public health officials built a state-of-the-art data system for its vaccine programs. That system soon will be put to the test as the state deploys its COVID-19 immunization campaign.
The Massachusetts Immunization Information System (MIIS) facilitates vaccine ordering and also tracks the status of patients receiving the vaccine. It is designed to offer patients helpful reminders for when they need to get the critical final dose of the vaccine. The two vaccines one from Moderna, the other from Pfizer expected to be distributed to certain Massachusetts residents in the coming months require two doses given weeks apart to effectively provide protection against the coronavirus. ....
