COVID-19 vaccine

[Sciencewoman]

We had a major debacle last week...the university sent out an email inviting all faculty, students, and staff for leftover vaccines due to cancelled appointments. I called and scheduled my son and I for the next day. It turns out only those in clinical placements (student teachers, nurses, clinical faculty) were supposed to be invited. It appears some top administrators had a heads up an scheduled/went that afternoon, along with others who had called and got in that afternoon. By the next morning, they had figured out the error and our appointments were cancelled. It made the news.

You can likely schedule through Rite Aid now. They drop new appointments between 11:45 and midnight, Tuesday through Saturday. The ones they drop tomorrow will be for Tuesday 3/16, the ones they drop Wednesday will be for 3/17, etc. One day of appointments, one week in advance.
