Abstract: Individuals residing in congregate settings, regardless of health or medical conditions, are at greater risk of acquiring infections, and many clients of Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities (ICFs-IID) face higher risk of severe illness due to age, disability, or underlying health conditions. Currently, the United States (U.S.) is responding to a public health emergency of respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus that has now been detected in more than 190 countries internationally, all 50 States, the District of Columbia, and all U.S. territories. The virus has been named “severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2” (SARS-CoV-2), and the disease it causes has been named “coronavirus disease 2019” (COVID-19). On January 30, 2020, the International Health Regulations Emergency Committee of the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern.” On January 31, 2020, pursuant to section 319 of the Public Health Service Act (PHSA) (42 U.S.C. 247d), the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (Secretary) determined that a public health emergency (PHE) exists for the United States to aid the nation’s health care community in responding to COVID-19 (hereafter referred to as the PHE for COVID 19). On March 11, 2020, the WHO publicly declared COVID-19 a pandemic. On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 pandemic a national emergency. The January 31, 2020 determination that a PHE for COVID-19 exists and has existed since January 27, 2020, lasted for 90 days, and was renewed on April 21, 2020; July 23, 2020; October 2, 2020; and January 7, 2021. Given the new and emerging qualities of COVID-19 disease, vaccines, and treatments we recognize that education and offering of the vaccine to clients and staff is critical. The vaccine may be offered and provided directly by the ICF-IID or indirectly, such as through a local health department, pharmacy, or doctor’s office. Vaccines may be administered onsite or at other appropriate locations. Implementation of COVID-19 education and vaccination programs in ICFs-IID will help protect clients and staff, allowing an eventual return to more normal routines, including timely preventive health care; family, caregiver and community visitors; and group and individual activities.
