Michigan State Medical Society recommends a voluntary priority order for the first private supply. Doctors should reserve doses for children under first grade and over one year, school children in grades three to eight, and pregnant women. If licensed, much of the initial vaccine will be used by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis for first and second graders at no charge in schools.
