Updated Priority Group Guidance and Job Opportunities

Hello,

This email contains an update on priority group guidance and a job opportunities update.

Updated Version of Priority Group Guidance Now Available!

This guidance document has been updated to include a proposed priority group code set based on the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) priority groups and tiers. Communicating priority group is not currently a national COVID-19 requirement; IIS are encouraged to adopt these national values where they align with local definitions. The goal of this guidance in Appendix D: Proposed Priority Group Codes, is to aid jurisdictions that request this information from their partners.

It is now available on the AIRA repository!
