Pennsylvania s vaccine provider map not always accurate

Some COVID-19 vaccine providers in Luzerne County had numerous appointment slots available Wednesday, but you wouldnât know it by checking the stateâs online provider map or most-recent vaccine distribution file. Checking the state Department of Healthâs vaccine provider map against some local providersâ appointment websites showed that the departmentâs map doesnât always list providers that have appointments available, which could make it more difficult for people to schedule vaccinations quickly. For example, Wilkes-Barre General Hospital had open appointment slots on its website for Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and well into next week, and Albertâs Pharmacy in Pittston listed open appointment slots on its website for Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday.

Use of J&J vaccine in Luzerne County varied by provider

Some local providers administered all doses of the COVID-19 vaccine manufactured by Janssen / Johnson & Johnson prior to an order Tuesday to suspend its use, but at least one major provider didnât use any. The state Department of Health allocated a combined 6,400 doses of the J&J vaccine to seven providers in Luzerne County last week â four to eight days before U.S. health officials recommended pausing use of the vaccine to give the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration time to investigate six cases of J&J recipients developing unusual blood clots.
