and

Mayor, I’m on your

Task Force and have spent so much time helping seniors register. The current system is not sustainable. A 90 yo wo a computer couldn’t even get through on the phone. I know

@_DCHealth

is trying, but there has to be a better way.

Why are we having such a had time getting Ward 5,7 & 8 into the que? Do we need to send nurses to them? I would be happy to escort any nurses to give the elderly their shots. I can do it as part of my MPD Reserve work and be in uniform. Lets get them vaccinated so my wife can.

Madame Mayor, my mom is 78 y/o and lives in 20001, but isn’t having any luck registering. What can I do to get her vaccinated?

Thousands, & my heart went out to the pharmacy ass’t in a Giant store in NE where two elderly people begged the ass’t to schedule them for an appointment. She told them she couldn’t but gave them DOH’s website and tel#. They both muttered they tried that route, unsuccessfully.
