There is a tremendous amount of uncertainty for anything and everything when it comes to the COVID-19 vaccine. The standards of who is eligible to get the vaccine (and when!) differs from state to state and is a moving target to say the least. While some states have already begun to distribute the vaccine according to their state mandated guidelines, others are struggling to define what those mandates are exactly.
