Key facts
- Immunization priority tier
- The vaccination priority tier depends on the severity of an infectious disease outbreak as well as the population group that a patient belongs to. For any given severity of outbreak or pandemic, a single population group falls into a single tier. So for example, in a low or moderate severity pandemic, a child between the ages of 3-18 without high risk conditions might be in tier 2 for vaccination priority, but as the pandemic worsens, they may be re-assigned to tier 3.
