The demand is high for a COVID vaccine, and the logistics behind getting a coveted appointment are leaving many frustrated and empty-handed. Every time we picked a location, there was no appointments available at any location, Anna Duncan told Newsy.
Duncan and her sister each spent four hours trying to get a vaccine appointment for their 91-year-old mother, who lives in Washington, D.C., with no luck. I happened to be in Florida, and my sister s in Arlington, Virginia. My sister and I each saw one appointment and we immediately grabbed it.

Researchers at MIT Lincoln Laboratory and students at the Penn State College of Information Sciences and Technology have been working on artificial intelligence computer models that uses disaster scene images to inform responders about flooding.
For humans, this process is relatively easy, but when a dataset is made up of more than 100,000 areal images that vary in altitude, cloud cover, context and area and need to be processed in a matter of days or hours, computers become a necessity. That’s when researchers turned to Amazon Web Services Inc.to use their cloud services.
