  1. Thank you for posting excellent info! By the way, please look into 2nd, even first appointments being cancelled this week because “the supply didn’t arrive” – won’t that throw off the entire schedule for weeks to come? How can they be giving first when they have to move the required second forward??

  2. My wife and I are 85 years old. When do we get our appointment for covid vaccination? We have registered several times without getting any appointment.

  3. Maryland state population is 6 million approximately.
    Howard county population is 336,000 approximately.
    On February 25th there were approximately 38,000 vaccinations in Maryland and approximately 900 in Howard county.
    Considering HOCO population represents 5.3% of the state, that means our county should have received approximately 2000 vaccinations, assuming there is a proportional activity.
    So why we are more than 1,000 vaccines short in HOCO?!?
    And this is happening for the last few days. Am I wrong?
