WellMed has closed its COVID-19 vaccine reservation hotline since all appointments for this week have been taken, officials said today.
WellMed expects to reopen its phone hotline this Friday once an additional 9,000 doses of the Moderna vaccine have been delivered. When it will reopen hasn’t been determined since it depends on when that supply is delivered.
