(Providence, RI) -- The Rhode Island Attorney General's Office is releasing a statement about its review of COVID-19 vaccine distribution by the state's two largest healthcare systems. The A.G.'s office looked into reports that Lifespan and Care New England offered board members the vaccine at a time when it was in limited supply and intended for use by frontline healthcare workers. Attorney General Peter Neronha [[ nair-OH-nuh ]] said his office concluded no violations were found because the state health department gave wide discretion in vaccine prioritization. However, Neronha says Lifespan and CNE, quote, "should have acted differently".
