Mary Kay O’Brien has been trying to schedule a COVID-19 vaccine appointment for weeks.
O’Brien, like many other New York state residents, is eligible to receive a coronavirus vaccine. But now, she won’t be able to receive one until mid-March.
“It is very hard to sign up on a Samsung smartphone. And the phone line kept just ringing,” said O’Brien, a resident of Onondaga County who has multiple cardiovascular conditions.
