Missouri plans to vaccinate priority groups by end of year

Missouri's health director says the state should be able to vaccinate all 

hospital workers and nursing home staff and residents against COVID-19 by the 

end of the year. Health department Director Randall Williams on Friday told 

reporters that Missouri is expecting to get close to 340,000 doses of 

coronavirus vaccines this month. Williams says Missouri plans to begin 

vaccinating non-essential workers in May. He says he's hopeful anyone who wants 

a vaccine should be able to get one by July or August.
