Answer: The answer to your question is that Phase 1B will begin no later than February 1, according to the Iowa Department of Public Health. The department just released its recommendations to the public on Tuesday.
Phase 1B groups include people over the age of 75, lifeguards, correctional facility staff and inmates, state legislators, health inspectors, teachers, and more.
Local public health agencies will make decisions about who to vaccinate in these groups based on disease trends, exposure risk, and health equity.
You’ll probably find out when we get into Phase 1B through media reports.
