K-12 schools whose staff can be vaccinated next week have been notified. All other schools will be contacted shortly with information on when their K-12 staff will be permitted to receive a vaccine
Ada school staff is on the list for eligible school personnel in Ohio to begin receiving vaccines in Week 3 (beginning Feb. 15), according to an announcement from the governor’s office.
According to the announcement, every public school district in the state - except for one - has agreed to resume in-person schooling by March 1, which was a requirement for staff to have early access to the vaccine.
According to the Kenton-Hardin Health Department several counties in the state have shared that individuals have been contacted by potential scammers trying to get Social Security numbers and credit card information claiming it is for vaccine distribution.
Kelsey Ralston of the department said, "No providers in the county will ask for your credit card information for payment.
