January 27, 2021 Massachusetts residents over the age of 75 could begin scheduling appointments on Wednesday to get the first shot of a COVID-19 vaccine as soon as next week. However, as the state prepares for Phase 2 of the rollout, local lawmakers are venting concerns and frustrations about the accessibility of vaccination appointments. The Boston Globe, individuals who stayed up until midnight Wednesday to schedule an appointment next week complained about a lack of available time slots, out-of-date information pages, and glitchy websites. And the issues have persisted into the morning; several readers told Boston.com that they couldn’t find any open appointments Wednesday at any of the local clinics, pharmacies, or grocery chains where vaccines are being administered.
