HIDALGO COUNTY VACCINATION PLAN

I. Objective

The objective of the Hidalgo County Vaccination Plan to is efficiently and effectively distribute the COVID-19 vaccine within Hidalgo County in accordance with State and Federal Guidelines.

II. Guiding Principles

The Hidalgo County Vaccination Plan – Jail Staff Vaccination Addendum will abide by the Texas Department of State Health Services Vaccine Allocation Guiding Principles. COVID-19 vaccines that are in limited supply will be allocated based on:

• Protecting health care workers who fill a critical role in caring for and preserving the lives of COVID-19 patients and maintaining the health care infrastructure for all who need it.

• Protecting front-line workers who are at greater risk of contracting COVID-19 due to the nature of their work providing critical services and preserving the economy.

• Protecting vulnerable populations who are at a greater risk of severe disease and death if they contract COVID-19.

• Mitigating health inequities due to factors such as demographics, poverty, insurance status, and geography.

• Data-driven allocations using the best available scientific evidence and epidemiology at the time, allowing for flexibility for local conditions.

• Geographic diversity through a balanced approach that considers access in urban and rural communities in affected zip codes.

• Transparency through sharing allocations with the public and seeking public feedback.

III. Prioritization

As of Monday, March 29, 2021, Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) has opened up vaccine eligibility to all Texans ages 16 and over.
