It's part of the health department's planned vaccination phasing.

“With the beginning of this new phase, we’re able to start protecting our most vulnerable populations,” Public Information Officer Hailey Bloom said. “Phase 1A went well, and we’re now working with more community partners to distribute vaccines to people outside of healthcare workers and emergency responders.”
