More than 18,000 COVID-19 vaccines to arrive in East Texas first week of March

TYLER, Texas (KETK) – According to a list from the Department of State Health Services, 18,090 COVID-19 vaccines are set to arrive in East Texas.

There are three vaccine hub locations in East Texas. These are large vaccination sites created with the goal of providing a simpler way for more people to sign up for appointments. Hub locations in East Texas include Longview, Lufkin and Tyler.

Appointments are available to those who fall under Phase 1A and Phase 1B categories.

Phase 1A includes:

• Healthcare workers
• First and last responders
• Residents of long-term care facilities

Phase 1B includes:

• Age 65 and older
• Age 18 and older AND has at least one chronic medical condition that increases their risk for severe illness from COVID-19. (see the signup page for a list of conditions)

Currently, only the Moderna and Pfizer doses are available for distribution, though the FDA cleared the new Johnson & Johnson vaccine Saturday. DSHS says that Texas could receive more than 200,000 doses, but they don’t have a timeline for when they could arrive.

This list includes only allocations for first doses of the vaccine by county. DSHS automatically allocates second doses to providers based on the number of first doses they received, so people should be able to return to the same provider to receive their second dose.
