Vaccine Access broadens!

  We need your help to spread the word on two important issues related to COVID vaccinations. 

1. Extra doses standby list: As vaccine supply increases and expands across numerous clinics, individuals often schedule appointments at multiple sites and fail to cancel their appointment(s) at other sites. This results in an increasing number of “no-shows” and “extra” doses that we do NOT want to waste. We need your help to ensure no vaccine is wasted. If you know someone who has not yet been vaccinated, lives within 45 minutes of the Civic Center, TidalHealth Peninsula Regional or TidalHealth Nanticoke, and could get to the clinic to be vaccinated at the end of the day, please share this link with them to be placed on a “standby” list: COVID-19 Vaccination- "Stand-By" Call List Survey (surveymonkey.com). We will use this list to identify individuals for extra doses, text them of the potential availability and ask them to come to be vaccinated if there are additional doses from an open vial at the end of the day at one of these clinics.

 

2. Numerous appointments available at the Wicomico County Civic Center via massvax.maryland.gov – Tell anyone you know that the Civic Center is open with appointments! If you have family, friends, neighbors who are 60 or older they ARE ELIGIBLE for vaccination! Go online and register, state YES I AM ELIGIBLE and pick your time for an appointment.  If someone needs help call the state call center: 1-855-MDGOVAX.
