Looks awesome but the site crashed.

This site is working again, just made an appointment on 11/7 at Alexandria City High School

Still a bunch of spots available this weekend in Alexandria. I had to use two different devices for two kids though…it was keeping my info from the first kid even though I put in second kid’s info.

Vaccine hunters are saying all of the Fairfax County Govt Center appts are being cancelled. They were not supposed to be loaded yet.

Where are you seeing this? They haven’t emailed me that my appointments are cancelled yet.

Nothing even available on MoCo website. They had one day of clinic in two locations over TWO hours. What a joke!

So if the second one is 3 weeks later, how are people scheduling the second dose with Thanksgiving in 3 weeks? I scheduled for Sunday with Fairfax Dept of Health, but only the first dose... will they be open Thanksgiving weekend?

Totally ridiculous, tomorrow would have been perfect since kids don't have school. I was hoping for tomorrow.

This is why I went with CVS. I kept refreshing and this weekend eventually came up as an option.

this is also my question wrt vams and the vdh system - are they going to be running the weekend after thanksgiving? when will the important second shot be?

Three weeks is the minimum. No problem if it’s 3 weeks 2 days. I’m certainly not taking my kid to get his second shot on thanksgiving.

Isn’t MCPS setting up clinics? With such a big system it makes sense they would need more time to arrange. Be patient! Glad the available spots are getting filled, that’s a good sign in terms of demand.

Is the vams one just for VA residents??? I live in MoCo and just made two appts for Saturday but I’m afraid I’ll get there and they will turn us away…

We are just waiting a few weeks. You can book the second appointment anytime AFTER 3 weeks. There are plant of spots open currently FFX gov and Tysons.

Good luck, all!

Caplet Pharmacy in HoCo. About a half-hour drive.

On Page 1 they have East County, then on Page 2 (which of course takes 10 minutes to load) they have Silver Spring and G'town. But it seems only tomorrow's slots are even loaded yet.

We had appts booked for tomorrow and cvs canceled on us stating they have not received the doses.

So everyone is jumping the gun here. No rush. It’s been 18 mos of this $hit and more to come.

Your appointment being cancelled =/= “everyone is jumping the gun.”
