Regarding two days attempting to register for covid 19 vaccine.
I am 76 years old and take infusion treatments every 8 weeks. This makes me immune compromised
as are, I would venture to say, 90% of those who use the Infusion center at the Jefferson Hospital.
Should not those who are compromised be some of the first to receive a vaccine?
While checking with the hospital staff they explained that the county health dept is in charge of
scheduling. There has been some problems in the directions for signing up. As I understand it,
because I am not yet 85, the instructions are to go to My Chart.
In doing so it states on one hand that it is a new service and I would not need a google code however
it will not allow me to proceed with out one. Google sent 3 different codes with in seconds of each
other and would accept none.
My opinion is, too many players , no real step by step procedure,
Just what percentage of the 75 and older group is computer/internet savvy enough to navigate all of
these systems?
Note* I live alone.
Where do people such as myself get real help?
