[CED/CD/EAT] Vaccinations - early stages

[Silvertooth, Jeffrey C - (silverto)]

CEDs,

I hope you are all doing well this first week of January following a nice holiday break.

I am participating on the UA Vaccination Delivery Taskforce and all Extension personnel are being included in the efforts to secure the designation as educators for Phase 1B vaccinations.  We are getting this process moving now and it is going to be moving rather fast it seems.  I will work to keep you all up to date as new information is available.

As stated in the TMN comments today: "Some good news is that vaccinations for COVID-19 are on the way and every County Extension Director (CED) is working with local county health departments for the inclusion of CES personnel on the roster as educators."

Obviously, that includes CES personnel at the ag centers.  Extension personnel are based in various locations across the state but everyone is working in a given county.  County Extension Directors, CEDs, are the local points of contact for the coordination with Extension personnel.

Please proceed with your communications with local county health departments and include the full scope of Extension personnel in your counties.

I appreciate your cooperation.

Regards,

Jeff
