Michigan will expand its COVID-19 vaccination plan to include all Michigan residents aged 50 and up by the end of March. Caregiver family members and guardians who care for children with special health care needs will also be eligible to receive the vaccine. What medical conditions would make me eligible for vaccination during this phase for those individuals age 50 and older? Special health care needs include any physical, developmental, mental, sensory, behavioral, cognitive, or emotional impairment or limiting condition that requires medical management, health care intervention, and/or use of specialized services or programs. Beginning March 22 and as vaccine supplies become available, individuals age 50 years and older are eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
