There's a lovely State Park about 1.5 miles from my home

[MissMillie]

a drive-through vaccination clinic would be so nice.

The nearest max-vac site is over an hour away, and all the pharmacy/health facility appointments fill up faster than they can be announced.

And no, I don't live in a red state. And no, it's not a state where you can drive for 10 miles and never see a store, or a house, etc.

Is it because there are not enough vaccines?

1. Just for reference

I live in a state that turned red for the first time in my memory. We have a republican Governor, yet vaccines seemed to have been handled pretty well though he has not I forced other measures well. A few weeks ago the age limit was dropped to 16. When I was actively making appointments for about 15 friends, I saw county run centers in the largest cities but also smaller towns.

Good luck.

2. It is because there are a lot of people but soon waits will be over

The vaccines are a miracle so demand is high. But at 3 million vaccines per day soon we will have vaccinated all the people who want one. In a month there will be a huge oversupply. Keep trying.

3. We have had the same situation in Pa MM

It’s been much easier to get a jab in Philadelphia, if you reside there, than in the surrounding suburbs. We had to drive to Lancaster, Pa- 1.5 hours away.
Some I know from Pa went to NJ.

4. I'm close to the NH border

but I'm told I can't get a vax in NH.

7. Check 'vaccine finder'

- not your location but,

I randomly looked at zip codes in southern NH 03031-03033 and many locations had vaccine stock- plus they offer a phone number for each site- perhaps you can get one this way?.

Getting an appt. has been a real pain- but, keep looking. It’ll get easier. 😉

11. Yes you can, not sure who told you that. It was opened yesterday to non-state residents.

Appointments will be available through vaccines.nh.gov or by calling 211

On edit - I don't know how long the wait is. My son and his fiancee live in NH and they have an appointment for 4/30 - I don't know if that was a date of convenience for them or if they are making appointments that far out.

[MissMillie]

12. That explains it... my information is about a week old.

I'll look into it.

13. Good luck! My husband and I just got our 2nd shot today and it is a relief. Hope you can get an

appointment soon.

5. What does a State Park have to do with it?

You could do it in any parking lot, assuming there’s enough population density to warrant a location.

9. Yes, but right now

there aren't a lot of people visiting the state park/lake. So not only is it a big parking lot, but it's a big parking lot that isn't being used. PLUS the state owns it, so they don't have to ask permission for use.

8. This is my current favorite (soon to be) vaccination location:

Link to tweet

I hope you find success soon. Here in MI, it seemed like I would never get a vaccination... now opportunities have really opened up (2nd dose in a week). There is a wonderful person (a journalist, I believe) on Twitter that is combing our state and providing info regarding vaccination opportunities.

10. If you're on Twitter follow

@vaccinetime and @CVSvaccineMA - you will know as soon as appointments open if you enable notifications.

There have been a ton of appointments open at CVS in the last week.

Starting Monday, people from all states, including all of New England, will be eligible to sign up for a COVID-19 vaccination appointment in New Hampshire.

Appointments will be available through vaccines.nh.gov or by calling 211
