As you may know, the COVID-19 vaccine distribution is occurring in a phased approach. According to the SCDHEC web site, those in Phase 1a of the vaccine distribution--which is currently ongoing through February 22, may include:
SC Parents who are home caregivers of a child who is medically fragile or complex or severely disabled.
Does not include all parents of children with any chronic condition, such as diabetes or use of a wheelchair. A medical provider's signed attestation is needed to confirm the parent meets these criteria. More information is available on the SCDHEC web site.
This is subject to change at any time for many reasons, such as a change in federal guidance or in the VAC’s recommendations for South Carolina.
