Gallagher learned about a waitlist overseen by Androscoggin Valley Hospital through word of mouth: her sister-in-law called to say they’d been added to the list after calling with a question about scheduling.
“I called the number that my sister-in-law had called, and this person says, ‘Well I’ll put you on the list, and we’ll call you if there’s a place.’ So I’m kind of waiting, at this point, to see how this works out,” Gallagher said.
It isn’t clear if Gallagher, who is scheduled for her first vaccine on April 3, will be one of the lucky ones called for a last-minute shot. North Country Healthcare, which includes three hospitals administering vaccines to the public Androscoggin, Weeks Medical Center and Upper Connecticut Valley Hospital is currently managing multiple waitlists totaling hundreds of people.
