Michigan opens vaccine eligibility to 16+ by April 5; Ford Field to host regional mass vaccination site
I get my second old people shot on March 23, and 10 days later my grandson can get his. It's a good thing
It absolutely is! This whole, “I’ll wait my turn,” idea needs to stop. Happy to hear you are fully vaccinated and that your grandson will not be far behind.Quote:

I made my appointment, went through the process and received my shot with no problems at all.
Canada was way behind since vaccine is not being manufactured here but suddenly we have lots. The goal in Ontario is to have everyone done by June 21, 1st day of summer. I'm hoping that means re-opening of the border and I can get to a Tiger game in Aug. or Sept. Last year was the first year I missed a game since 1966.
It's not really a secret, but Walgreens and others don't verify what 'group' you are in to receive the vaccine.
Rite Aid does by age.Quote:

The Walgreens my husband went to did.Quote:
