Because the supply of COVID-19 vaccine in the <br /> United States is limited at first, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) is providing <br /> recommendations to federal, state, and local governments about who should be vaccinated first. CDC's <br /> recommendations are based on recommendations from the Advisory Committee on Immunization <br /> Practices (ACIP), an independent panel of medical and public health experts. The recommendations <br /> were made with these goals in mind: <br /> • Decrease death and serious disease as much as possible. <br /> • Preserve functioning of society. <br /> • Reduce the extra burden COVID-19 is having on people already facing disparities. <br /> Funding will be awarded to local health departments to support these goals in the planning and <br /> implementation of on-site, satellite, temporary or off-site COVID-19 vaccination clinics. <br /> II. Purpose: <br /> This Agreement Addendum provides funding to the Local Health Department (LHD) to help support <br /> activities associated with COVID-19 mass vaccination planning and implementation. Planning and <br /> response require close collaboration among public and private sector partners, public health emergency <br /> response and emergency management, and healthcare organizations and industry groups within the <br /> community. This funding may be used for associated costs for COVID-19 vaccine storage and handling, <br /> vaccine planning, COVID-19 vaccination services in open and closed point-of-dispensing (POD) <br /> DocuSignedby: 1.
