[Diabetes-Talk] Diabetes and vaccine eligibility.

[Terri Stimmel]

Hello everyone,


I have a question regarding vaccine eligibility.


I live in the state of Missouri. I have put myself on 3 lists so far.

However, one I filled out today actually stated what group they 
considered me in. It stated 1B, tier 2 if applicable.


Is this normal? Is this apparently how my state does it?

I am confused. I thought I would have already been contacted to get the 
vaccine. I don't mind waiting. I would just like to know what to expect.


Thank you,


Terri
