OPIC Meeting
2021-01-08 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
COVID-19 Vaccination Discussion

[Dr.Duldulao and Dr. Raphael]
- Representing OPIC at the State’s Vaccine Advisory Committee
- Have the responsibility of supporting the State in determining how we sequence distribution of the vaccine
- Governor’s Office [Sophorn Cheang] shared that the deadline for sequencing is January 31st
- Dr.Duldulao gave feedback to the governor’s office on how it is pitting communities against each other
- Do not feel set up for success
- Leann Johnson updated that they will be making the meetings more transactional because of feedback around not being able to get through all important agenda items
- The next meeting is on January 14, 2021
- Washington is advanced and has an application sharing where they are in vaccine distribution
- The plan is to come up with recommendations to share with the State such as
- Expanding definitions to reflect community/cultural practices
- Expanding the category of congregate
- We are still in Phase I
- National Guard is leading vaccination this weekend at the State Fair Grounds
- The goal is to vaccinate 12K people a day/ hope to vaccinate 300-400K people in Phase I but only have vaccinated at 70K so far
- Teachers are in front of the line of Phase 1B
- Not set in stone how we define essential worker
- Current sequencing does not include groups by race/ethnicity
- Partially because data at the national level / CDC is really bad, so they are mainly doing it by occupation
- Make sure communities prioritized by testing and are most impacted (i.e. BIPOC)
- A lot of this is based on the honor system – and you identify
