Signing up for Covid vaccine is a nightmare in Pennsylvania. [View all]

For the last week and a half a network of my friends and classmates have spent literally days trying to get registered on different sites to get our vaccine. Some have been successful, others not. Fortunately we are all educated and computer savvy. We are also trying to help other people who have no computer skills. This has been a most stressful experience because after all, it is a matter of life and death.
My friends in Ohio have already had their vaccines because every County in Ohio has a Department of Health and they organized different centers where they could go and get their shots. Only two Counties in PA have Health Departments so we are on our own to chase down the vaccine. This is insane.
I remember getting the polio vaccine in school. 🙄
