Every senior I know in our area of PA who wants to get vaccinated has been vaccinated or has an appointment to get vaccinated. I also know some seniors who have chosen not to make an appointment. Lehigh Valley Hospital Network & St. Luke’s Hospital have been handling it here.

Every senior I know in central PA who wants to get vaccinated has NOT been vaccinated. Some have found it impossible to get on a waiting list and others on a waiting list are still waiting to be scheduled. Here's the PA utility for finding a provider and scheduling a shot: https://www.health.pa.gov/topics/disease/coronavirus/Vaccine/Pages/Vaccine.aspx#map

Good luck finding appointment openings in central PA! E.g., CVS is one ot the supposedly many vaccine providers in the nation but you will not find an appointment open in any of their pharmacies in a 100 mile radius of Harrisburg.

Wolf and Levine have failed miserably in getting vaccines to Pennsylvanians. And now the dems want to give Levine a federal Dept of Health position. God help us!

I’m eligible but can’t get an appointment for a vaccination, either. The local hospital has put me on a waiting list but can’t promise I’ll get a vaccination there. They recommend that I try pharmacies and other healthcare facilities.

Their websites say they are booked up for months. That’s true for every pharmacy I’ve checked within 50 miles or more of my town. CVS, Rite Aid, and pharmacies at grocery stores. None has an opening for an appointment.

Supposedly, Pennsylvania’s health department is considering “equity” in its decisions about which counties get vaccine. And my county hasn’t gotten any vaccine for days.

I’m betting there aren’t enough minorities so we’re not a priority for vaccine. It’s being distributed, instead, in the Philadelphia area and Pittsburgh. Pennsylvania’s vaccination process is a disaster and it’s the fault of the Wolf administration and Rachel Levine. Incompetence at every level. Democrat bean counters and equity officers are probably pouring over census data to identify where minority communities are concentrated in the state. That’s what’s holding up and complicating distribution. What a sorry ass state Pennsylvania has become under Wolf and his henchmen.

I do not believe that statement about every person got a Vaccine from St Lukes or Lehigh Valley that wanted one.

My husband is 65 and a mail carrier he has been trying for over 2 months to get a vaccine and can’t get it!

I am 61 and can’t get it! I met the requirements. Rite Aid is suppose to be one of the Pharmacies that is to have it along with the above hospitals. We are registered with the hospitals but are waiting.
I can stay isolated but my husband can not!

So the dim with that says every one they know got the vaccine they know has no brains.
