The following press release will be issued shortly…
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
December 11,2020
State Allocates Nearly 10,000 Doses of Vaccine to Butte County,
First Delivery Slated for Next Week
BUTTE COUNTY, Calif. –The State has allocated nearly 10,000 doses of the COVID-19
vaccine to Butte County, which includes approximately 3,000 doses from Pfizer and 7,000
doses from Moderna. Of these doses, Butte County Public Health (BCPH) has allocated
almost 5,000 to Enloe Medical Center, with an anticipated delivery date of late next week.
These early doses of both vaccines will be prioritized to healthcare workers who are most
at risk of exposure to COVID-19. The vaccine is not available to other healthcare workers
or the general public at this time.
This is the first vaccine allocation for Phase 1 – additional doses will be allocated as:
Supply increases
Additional local healthcare providers are identified and invited by BCPH to register
with the State as an approved COVID-19 vaccine provider
New Phases of distribution are activated
BCPH anticipates that additional acute care hospitals in Butte County will complete the
registration process in time to receive allocations for the next order. Orders will be placed
weekly, every Thursday.
Healthcare providers who have not been contacted directly by BCPH to register with CDPH
as a vaccine provider are not currently identified to receive the vaccine in the first phase of
distribution. These providers should wait to be contacted by BCPH.
BCPH continues to receive information from the federal and state government about
vaccine prioritization, allocation, requirements, and timelines, and will continue to share that
information with stakeholders and the public as it is received.
