Please remember: each state has the flexibility to tailor recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) for prioritizing vaccination. Therefore, the risk-based phases will vary in each state. Furthermore, each county’s vaccination within each state is limited by its vaccination supply. This means some counties will be further along in their vaccination phase than other counties, even if the counties are in the same state.

None of the Tennessee Counties above have COVID-19 vaccines available at the time this was published. The counties will announce when shipments are received. Bledsoe, Marion, and Sequatchie have confirmed they cannot turn away non-residents. Bledsoe, Bradley, Marion, and Rhea Counties have confirmed their next vaccine site once vaccines are received. Meigs and Sequatchie Counties will likely change locations as schools will be back in session before the next allotment is shipped.
