Governor Matt Meyer and the Delaware Division of Public Health have issued a standing order on COVID-19 vaccine eligibility and are calling on the Board of Pharmacy to convene an emergency meeting to protect vaccine access. The standing order refers to recommendations from other relevant professional organizations to determine eligibility for the COVID-19 vaccine. It requests that the Board ensure continued access to the COVID-19 vaccine for all Delawareans aged six months and older, regardless of any high-risk conditions. Governor Meyer is also calling on the Board of Pharmacy to convene an emergency meeting to affirm this standing order. The order also aligns with the Department of Insurance鈥檚 recent assurances that most carriers will maintain their existing vaccine coverage levels. Governor Meyer directed the Department of Public Health and the Department of Education to review and update state regulations to maintain health and safety standards for Delaware students, regardless of changes to federal guidance.
