Bad news on our local vaccine front

[Stinky The Clown]

A case of bad news being really good news.

The county is considering limiting access to vaccines as demand outstrip supply.are also running low

Walk-in shots are not currently available at county locations, only appointments. Drug store like CVS are experiencing lack of vaccines at some location.

The county has the highest vax rate in the state at 79.8%

We are waiting for our third shots.

13. Mandates are kicking in

Some folks might like to stay employed by getting vaccinated

[George II]

14. Not sure where you are. Where we are vaccines are available at maybe 10 locations within 5 miles...

We have a CVS a quarter mile from us, and now supermarkets are offering it.

That's the originals, not the boosters. No word yet on those.

Maybe demand here is down, CT is the highest vaccinated state at 82% for 12+.

15. Ok

to be honest, I would rejoice if our county had this problem as having the opposite problem is much worse.
