Even as more doses are available, some might still need help to find an appointment. Through various means, as shown on the flyer, the group is sharing tips for making appointments, upcoming clinics, last minute appointments, and even chances to get a dose that would otherwise be wasted*. Congregants may also contact Martha Boward, who will try to find an appointment for those who are unable to do so on their own.
All vaccines are administered at NO COST; if you have insurance or Medicare, the vaccine provider may bill health insurance or Medicare for administering the vaccine, but may not ask you for payment.
*"Wasted" refers to vials that are open and must be used by a certain time, or the remaining doses have to be thrown out. While Pennsylvania is working through its phases, the phases are not meant to stop a vaccine provider from going outside the current phase in order to not waste vaccines. Checking toward the end of a known vaccine distribution may get you a last minute dose.
