AI Summary

This bill establishes a centralized system for Massachusetts residents to preregister for COVID-19 vaccination, regardless of their current eligibility phase or group. Registrants will provide their contact information and eligibility details, and will be placed in separate queues based on their phase and group. As vaccine supply becomes available, registrants within the upcoming phase and group will be offered appointments at their preferred vaccination sites, with reasonable time to respond. The bill also requires employers to accommodate their employees' vaccination appointment scheduling and directs the Department of Public Health to widely publicize the preregistration system.
