Subject: Action Required: Allocation Plan Week of 02.22.21
This email is being sent to all providers allocated vaccine the week of February 22
NC Department of Health and Human Services
Actions Required:
Allocation Plan for the Week of February 22:
Attached is the allocation plan for the week of February 22 with baseline and equity-based increases (175,750), people per dose increases (9,900) and events (14,470).
The attached spreadsheet shows:
Because the overall state allocation is low, providers should keep in mind that baseline allocations are often significantly below a provider’s capacity. Vaccine events are scored based on three criteria: equity, operational readiness and speed, and community partnerships. As a reminder, providers can propose vaccination events via the ReadyOp online survey form, linked here: The survey is also available at this URL: https://nc.readyop.com/fs/4d8U/edbe. The deadline to submit new events for the weeks of March 1 and March 8 is Monday, February 22 at 12:00pm ET. Submissions after this date will be considered for future allocations beyond the current 3-week allocation period. Due to limited supply, the State is only able to support a limited number of events or efforts per week; as such, not all proposed events can be supported in a given week. Current supply levels do not allow for week-after-week support of any large events or efforts. As such, the State is currently rotating geographically around the state to support these efforts for one week at a time, to ensure geographic access.
Second Doses for Week of February 22:
Second doses for the week of February 22 were ordered to arrive February 18 or February 19, although adverse weather is impacting COVID-19 vaccine shipments. These match Pfizer first doses from the week of February 1 and Moderna first doses from the week of January 25.
Providers need to ensure they are correctly accounting for first and second doses. Going forward, the state will not be able to correct errors at the provider level created by confusion of first and second doses. Second doses come to match first doses. In addition to the allocation spreadsheet, you can differentiate first and second doses in two ways as orders arrive. In the CVMS email, you will see a “S” in the middle of the order number to signal second doses. In the paperwork with the shipment, in the Customer PO field, the last letter will be a “S” on your second doses. On first dose shipments, a “F” would appear in the mentioned locations.
Expectations:
As outlined previously, providers must be ready to follow these expectations when accepting the allocation:
If providers cannot meet these expectations, NCDHHS will not be able to continue allocating supply to the provider.
Additional Reference Notes:
Thank you for all of your hard work and time towards North Carolina’s COVID-19 vaccination efforts. Please reach out to your NCDHHS case manager with any follow-up questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Amanda Fuller Moore, PharmD
Vaccine Lead, DHHS COVID-19 Response
