Hannibal, Missouri, hosted a National Guard mass vaccination event, in conjunction with the local health department, in the first week of February. Many St. Louis-area residents traveled there for a shot.
Nadine Hutson pre-registered for the COVID-19 vaccine at a dozen places around Missouri before she scored one of the prized shots.
The advice from her friends was: The more rural, the easier it is to get a dose. Fewer people live in those counties, Hutson reasons.
After scouring the internet for vaccine appointments for nearly 10 hours, she spotted a clip in a Perryville newspaper announcing a vaccination event Jan. 29. “First come, first serve,” it read. Hutson, 67, who lives in south St. Louis County, left at 2:30 a.m. to drive south to Perry County and stand in line.
