COVID19 Vaccine Information

Commonwealth of VA COVID19 Vaccination Plan

Introduction

In March 2020, the Commonwealth of Virginia established a Unified Command System to manage the state-level response to COVID-19. A Vaccine Unit was formed under the Public Health Surveillance and Guidance Workgroup of the Commonwealth’s unified command structure in June 2020 to conduct planning and coordination. Additionally, a COVID-19 Vaccine Advisory Workgroup was established in August 2020 to gather key stakeholder input on vaccine plans, priority groups, vaccine equity and other related issues. Virginia’s interim draft COVID-19 vaccination plan was developed by the Virginia Department of Health (VDH) and was recently exercised with partner state agencies. This plan will continue to be updated in collaboration with local health districts, the Virginia Emergency Support Team (VEST) and the COVID-19 Vaccine Advisory Workgroup as the federal government shares additional details and more information becomes available about the vaccine(s). The most current information, including the full version of Virginia’s interim draft COVID-19 Vaccination Plan, is available.
