West Virginia Lowers Age for Vaccine Access
West Virginia will start vaccinating essential workers aged 50 and up, including out of state residents who work in the state. Maj. Gen. James Hoyer said the 50 plus group will join the 65 and older rollout later this week as preregistration via Everbridge remains required for all eligible people. Gov. Jim Justice praised progress, noting over 136000 first doses and more than 60000 second doses to the 65 plus group. Andrea Lannom of DHHR Clarified preregistration requirements, including proof of WV employment and use of work address, with appointments scheduled through the Everbridge system.
