It’s a heart disease you’ve had since birth, you were born that way. So if you have a valve deficiency, such as a leaky valve, from birth then you qualify.

LOL, oh it's Microsoft.


I do think DC has done a really good job rolling out vaccines, all things considered. But please let's not blame the contractors. You chose the contractors.

I stayed on hold until I got through, gave all my info......and then was told that all appointments were booked.

I think the people who take the phone calls use the same web interface as anyone else.

Keep holding on I heard that too and selected to stay on the line and directly after spoke to someone. They are still able to search for appointments though by now all are filled.

So much for prioritized zip codes. What an easily avoidable mess.
