[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did Howard vaccinate all its teachers?[/quote]

Nope.  I live in Howard County.  The teachers are in phase 1B, which means they are now eligible, but it is almost impossible to find places that both have open appointments and have supply.  I have one friend who is a teacher married to a teacher.  She spent her day off checking various places refreshing every 20-30 minutes or so.  In the late afternoon, a friend passed her a new link and she managed to find one cancellation, but had to literally head out the door within a few minutes to make it there for the last-minute cancellation.  She got home and checked the link and she found one more last minute cancellation and made her husband drop what he was doing and head over and grab the vaccination.  And she had been checking daily since the 18th multiple times per day.

On her post, there were over a dozen other teachers saying that they were still trying to find a place to get a vaccination.  I know teachers in 5 counties and the city of Baltimore and despite them being phase 1B, less than 10% of them have actually been able to find a vaccination.  Hopefully February will get better, but right now, so many of the shots are going to hospitals who are prioritizing their high risk patients over others.  The places that are open for the general public 1A/1B eligible cannot handle the volume of requests they are getting.  They are essentially down to administering the tests that they get within a day or two of when they get them and then waiting for the next shipment.[/quote]
