LOS ANGELES (CNS) - COVID-19 vaccination appointments often a hot commodity in Los Angeles County appeared widely available today, but the county s public health director said it was likely the result of scheduling issues, not a sign of dwindling demand.
Barbara Ferrer also said that even if there is a sudden wide availability of appointments, it doesn t mean the county should immediately expand eligibility to everyone aged 16 and over, which is scheduled to occur April 15.
“There s 5.5 million people in (currently) eligible groups, and all of them have not received their first dose, Ferrer said. “. We only opened for people 50 and older a few days ago, so we re going to continue to make sure there s good access.
