Long-term care vaccinations are taking place under a separate federal program that uses pharmacists to inoculate residents.
This week, Delaware moved to Phase 1B, a group numbering 200,000 that includes a large contingent that includes essential workers and those over the age of 65.
A registration program is now underway. Individuals can also register at the Walgreens website, with other pharmacies expected to join the effort.
Delaware is testing out mass vaccinations through Department of Motor Vehicle locations, with pharmacies also expected to be a key part of the system. Those events require registration.
The state is also seeking health care professionals and others to administer the vaccinations and deal with accompanying paperwork that will include reminding those vaccinated to get the required second dose. A mass vaccination site at the DMV requires a staff of 150.
