COVID vaccines available to Coloradans 60+, grocery workers on March 5

DENVER (KRDO) -- Colorado Gov. Jared Polis announced Friday that people over the age of 60 and several other groups of people will be able to start getting COVID-19 vaccines beginning March 5.

The new phase of vaccines, 1B.3 includes people over 60, anyone over the age of 16 with two or more comorbidities, and agricultural/grocery workers.

Phase 1B.4 will expand the vaccine distribution list to a vast amount of employees, including restaurant and transportation workers. That phase will have about 2.5 million Coloradans, according to state health officials, and is expected to start on March 21 at the earliest.

Phase 2, which will be for the general public, is expected to start later. An exact date hasn't been announced, but the governor said it'll likely be late April, or early May.
