Despite huge supply in the US, I’m hearing from people in many states that it’s not easy for the elderly to get a booster appointment now. Many places are full, apparently for weeks. I can’t confirm all the reports but seems important to look into? Especially outside few cities.https://twitter.com/NathanStall/status/1470181442273558528 …

atlantic triangle @atlantictrianglReplying to @zeynepSame issue with shots for the little ones in NJ. Friend of mine got their kids their first dose, but because they were sick (non-covid) they had to delay the second shot. As of a few days ago, they couldn't get an appointment until 12/23 at the earliest7 replies 1 retweet 47 likesShow this thread -

This isn’t good! This is essentially a question of delivery, not supply. And the elderly are least likely to be able to hustle like this, but most vulnerable and in need of a booster before holidays.https://twitter.com/smithaprasadh/status/1470207769957568512 …

(on semi-hiatus) @smithaprasadhReplying to @jeffbigham @zeynepEast Liberty Target CVS had to cancel my booster appt for yesterday because they ran out and wouldn’t have more until midweek at the earliest. I opted to drive an hour each way, almost to WV, for the closest same-day shot I could find.4 replies 11 retweets 79 likesShow this thread -

Replying to @zeynep
Here in metrowest Boston I can't find an appt. within an hour of my house for the next 10 days. We do have walk-in clinics in Worcester and Framingham (Metrowest Pharmacy), but many people don't know about those.

Yeah, there seems to be possibilities if one hustles but… this should be better organized.
