In December, federal agencies began distributing the first COVID-19 vaccine to states.
The first phase of the distribution saw Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccinations going to first responders throughout the United States including health professionals, first responders, and residents of long-term health care facilities.
In January, people over 65 or with a chronic medical condition that puts them at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19 became eligible to receive the vaccine as part of Phase 1B.
These individuals include:
The Week of Jan. 11, the state of Texas began distributing vaccines received to large sites or hubs around the state to vaccinate more than 100,000 people.
Governor Greg Abbott visited Arlington on Monday, Jan. 11, to tour one such facility, which aims to ultimately serve surrounding counties in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area if possible.
If Texans are in Phase 1 and eligible to receive the vaccine, they can check the COVID-19 Vaccination Hub Providers page to find a hub near them and learn how to register.
Alternately, they can also check the websites of vaccine providers listed on the Texas COVID-19 Vaccine Availability map to see if they have enough vaccine supply at this time.
According to the Texas Department of State Health Services, the best estimate of when vaccines will be available for the general public not eligible in phase 1A or 1B is Spring 2021.
However, the DSHS’s website says that the timeline is subject to change; vaccine distribution depends on vaccine production and how quickly other vaccines become available.
COVID-19 vaccines are being distributed through the federal government from Moderna and Pfizer as they are available.

NOTE: Case and fatality information is updated daily at 1 pm and is compiled from information reported publicly by local health departments and through the DSHS public health regions. Counts are current as of that morning.
Because some jurisdictions report cases later in the day, local numbers may be more up to date. County case numbers may occasionally go down if the case investigation determines the person is a resident of another county or state.
Testing numbers show the number of test results for Texas residents reported to DSHS by public health and private labs. They do not include pending tests. Additional testing may be occurring by labs not yet reporting all results to DSHS. Unable to deduplicate total test numbers for private labs.
Demographic data comes from completed case investigations. The majority of cases in Texas are still under investigation.
Hospitalization and hospital capacity numbers are reported daily by hospitals through eight Hospital Preparedness Program providers that coordinate health care system preparedness and response activities in Texas.
