Renee Cheatham, 375th Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron aeromedical evacuation technician, middle, and Senior Airman Matthew Smith, 375th Security Forces patrolman, second from the right, are congratulated by Chief Master Sgt. Chuck Frizzell, 375th Air Mobility Wing command chief, left, and Col. Angela Ochoa, 375th AMW vice-commander, right, for being the first three members of Team Scott to receive a COVID-19 inoculation on Scott Air Force Base, Ill., Jan 6, 2021. The Department of Defense prioritizes personnel to receive the vaccines based on Center of Disease Control guidance and the DoD COVID Task Force’s assessment of unique DoD mission requirements. The DoD Prioritization Schema prioritizes those providing direct medical care, maintaining essential national security and installation functions, deploying forces and beneficiaries at the highest risk for developing serious illness before other members of the DoD population.
