75-year-old woman says she ’doesn’t know what to do next’ after repeated attempts to make Covid-19 vaccination appointment
Harford County, Maryland (WJZ) While the number of Marylanders getting their COVID-19 vaccinations continues to climb, many are still trying to get a shot.
Judi Harris said she has done everything she can to try to make an appointment to get vaccinated.
“I’m 75-years-old, I lost my husband. My children are so worried, and my grandchildren that… that they’re going to lose me, too,” she said.
Harris said, since the end of January, it seems like an endless cycle leading to nowhere.
With COVID-19 cases in a current and steady decline, Havre de Grace officials plan to reopen City Hall and City Council meetings to the public next month, plus the council recently approved a slate of community events for the spring and summer.
This proposed legislation would alter the Medicaid reimbursement rate for emergency medical transports from $100 by $25 a year until the rate reaches $300. An increase to the rate is long overdue as it has been fixed at $100 for over 20 years.
The COVID-19 vaccines are designed to protect everyone who receives the shots, regardless of race, gender, age, body type, but they are not getting to all groups in Harford County in an equitable manner, according to the local health officer.
