MONTPELIER The Vermont Department of Health was flooded with phone calls Tuesday morning as COVID-19 vaccination scheduling began for people ages 70 and over.
In the first 15 minutes of opening for that age group, the department received 7,000 calls, according to a news release. The state previously had focused vaccination efforts on those 75 and older, as well as health care workers, emergency medical providers and people in long-term care facilities.
Given the call volume, the department asks that people schedule their appointments online at healthvermont.gov/MyVaccine.
There are enough appointments for everyone in the age group, the release said.

As an opener, the Thetford Academy board has sent a letter to the Strafford School Board that says, in effect, if you’re going to designate us as your high school, you should send your students here.
Though the letter says that “Thetford Academy remains wholeheartedly committed to welcoming students from Strafford,” it goes on to say that “we do not believe the current way in which this designation agreement has been discharged serves either the Town of Strafford or Thetford Academy in accord with the intent of the designation statute.”
