My governor gave a bit more information about vaccine distribution. First phase would be front-line health care workers with a high risk of coronavirus exposure. That includes workers in nursing homes but it would also include nursing home residents even though they are not health care workers.
Second phase would be more essential workers which includes first responders, meatpacking plant workers and grocery store employees. I'm sure there are more included in the essential workers but that's the ones called out in the local news story I read.
Meatpacking, while not responsible for many deaths, represents the 3rd largest amount of cases in my state by cluster type. The highest is long-term care facilities (responsible for almost 43% of the death rate in the state) by cluster type and behind that is corrections facilities (also not responsible for many deaths) by cluster type.
