Public-facing workers such as grocery store employees and transit and sanitation workers, as well as residents aged 60 and over, will be eligible to book COVID-19 vaccination appointments starting Monday in Massachusetts, and the general public aged 16 and older will be eligible starting April 19, officials said Wednesday.
The eligibility timeline was provided by Governor Charlie Baker’s administration before his scheduled public briefing at 10:30 a.m.
Under the timeline, essential workers and residents 60-plus who become eligible Monday will be followed by people aged 55 and over and those with one co-morbidity, who are slated for eligibility April 5. Then the rest of the 16 and over public gains access starting April 19, at which point officials estimate 2.5 million people will be newly eligible.
