Laurel: To a well-oiled machine. When it comes to large gatherings of people for a specific purpose, sometimes the operation can function perfectly. Sometimes it turns into chaos. Anyone who has tried to get out of a parking lot after a big concert can attest to best laid plans going awry.
So it is a pleasant surprise to see large vaccine events going off as smoothly as they are. Reports of quick lines and easy processing have been the hallmark of area mass clinics put on by various medical groups and sponsors like the Pittsburgh Penguins.

PITTSBURGH (Apr. 15, 2021) – Since early February, Allegheny Health Network and Highmark Health have administered over 277,000 COVID-19 vaccines in Western Pennsylvania through several dozen mass vaccination clinics and daily clinics at AHN hospitals and other facilities. As part of its ongoing efforts to ensure equitable distribution and convenient access to the vaccine, AHN has partnered with the Jewish Community Center of Greater Pittsburgh (JCC) in Squirrel Hill to vaccinate 1,250 individuals today. “Working with community groups and faith-based organizations has been vital in ensuring the vaccine is available to everyone in our community,” shared Amy Crawford-Faucher, MD, family medicine physician and vice chair of the AHN Primary Care Institute. “By embedding these clinics in a variety of communities throughout the western Pennsylvania region, we’re able to get shots in the arms of individuals who may not have had easy access to the vaccine otherwise.”
